Re: Changes to Nose

... pics of her from the front. Her nose is more or less identical. It is correct that there is almost always some alteration of the nose but in Arnett/Gunson are skilled enough to minimize and/or prevent it from negatively affecting the persons appearance.

Re: Changes to Nose

To all freaked out about Arnett/Gunson's imaging, this photo shows the before, predicted, and actual results. As you can see, she looks much better in her actual after than the prediction. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7080/7042337219_10a1bac123.jpg ...

Re: Changes to Nose

... photos. but at the consult, there are several hundred before/after photos available. many plastered all over the wall. know that gunson/arnett do about 3 surgeries a week. arnett/gunson charge premium because they put a huge focus on aesthetics. i seriously doubt your jaw surgery will ...

Re: Changes to Nose

... says it changes. It changes in all the photos I've ever seen of jaw surgery. It tips up/nostrils flair. Sometimes it widens. I don't know about Arnett/Gunson. Do we really believe they're work is different?

Yikes, I don't need/want jaw surgery. Do they do genioplasties as well?

Re: Too old?

... I was proposed 5mm upper jaw impaction and lower jaw 15mm movement. To me the lower jaw sounds too much. For anyone here who has consulted with Arnett/Gunson do you mind sharing your case and proposed jaw movement, impaction etc....

Re: Too old?

... still in the early stages of braces. I think it's important to remember no one will look worse post-surgery even if the prediction looks off. Arnett/Gunson are two of the best in the business, their patient results speaks for themselves. I have no doubt I will look very similar or even better ...

Re: Too old?

... i only took a brief look at the digital projections. did you guys have access to a frontal view (i.e, features)? i only saw profile. then again arnett/gunson were not 100% but they are legendary. 50k might seem like a lot, but so is ten years of braces. when im 40-50 i dont think ill regret. ...

Re: just as good....?

"just as good" is hard to define. gunson/arnett perform some very new techniques that other surgeons haven't mastered yet. but let's be real, you have above average features. if your bite is a problem (mechanically) you have to weigh whether ...

Re: Surgery with Arnett/Gunson scheduled, no insurance. : (

Hi cvn, thank you, sure thing the best is to ask them directly, Im seeing them next month so I will have all these questions answered hopefully.
@Sumertimelove, thank you so much for your feedback too. I will post again when I see Arnett in April to tell you how it went.
Thanks all!

Re: just as good....?

Lol how many times has this been asked. arnett/gunson are ranked pretty highly. wolford is held in similar prestige. i imagine there are others. i can only speak for the surgeons i met with (over 5), and arnett/gunson were leagues ahead of them ...

Re: strategy

it shouldn't matter what your ortho wants. gunson and arnett handle patients in other states and other countries. the problem with braces is that arnett and gunson will provide explicit instructions to the ortho in how they want your teeth to be moved. ...
