so my mom and i were shopping at a beauty store today and the lady who works there knows us really well and usually sees us there all the time. well she was like to my mom " who is she ? do you have another daughter?" and my mom was like " no she's the same one". the lady was like "wow she looks different, what did she do? her face...pretty". then she starts smiling. my mom was like she had surgery. lol


anyway i dont think i look that different but if everyone else thinks so, that makes me happy, i guess.

haha my surgeon said he didnt even recognize me when i went to see him.

I think it does change the way you look drastically. My sister had them years ago and she was not so pretty :yuck: . I dont even think having braces was what made her look ugly she just wasnt pretty. Then she had her braces taken off and OMG she was a whole different looking person!! :shock: It was unbelievable the transformation. SHe looks like Beyonce now. No Kidding!! She turned out so pretty, just goes to show the difference teeth can make.

Like Shanalouis I had a massive change in my appearence after surgery. I had such a recessed lower jaw, no or very weak chin and a kinda crooked nose. Now I have a very strong jaw, nice chin and very straight nose. I probably should of done this surgery when I was 16 instead of 35 when I wasn't married and cared a lot more about my appearence.

That made me laugh out loud, in a good way. Your sister must be flattered.

The facial bone structures makes the difference, not the teeth.
