Surgery time?

[Corrinne]

How long does a double jaw surgery with genioplasty, for underbite correction, take?

I've read some people say 4 hours and others say 9 or 10! Which is a more realistic amount?

And how long should I expect to be in hospital for?

Thanks, Corrinne

hello,

I had double jaw surgery for an overbite with upper palate widening but no genioplasty in 6 hours. I was in hospital for 2 days. xx

I had a double jaw osteotomy and genio to correct an open bite and over jet, I was in surgery for five hours and in hospital for two nights.
