Just had mine a week ago just remember first 3-4 days are hell but if you have pain meds you will sleep thru it on this day I’m feeling great tho good luck :))
You look amazing and sooo beautiful, I had my surgery one month ago and still I cannot talk, my chin hurts me all the time and whenever I try to speak it hurts more. My surgeon says it’s ok and I have to try some exercises! Please provide me with any type if advise because I am dying from the inside, I can’t talk and can’s eat 😭
I am going to have double jaw surgery next month. I am a really nervous but at the same time excited. Your videos are really encouraging. Can you make a video dedicated to essential things required to make recovery process easy? That would be really helpful. Thank you for your videos.
Hi Chloe! You're looking fantastic! Have you noticed any changes to your nose? I'm 2 weeks post opt at the moment and my nose looks wider. I'm hoping it's just the swelling but my maxilla was moved forward 3 mm so it might be because of that.
Hello! Thanks so much! Congrats on your surgery, I hope recovery is going well :) Yes I have found that my nose has changed a little - for me it has upturned a little bit from my maxilla movement. I’ve seen that it’s really common for noses to change slightly, depending on the jaw movement and structure of the nose! I found that the swelling emphasised any movement of my nose, so if you’re worried at all, give it a few weeks for the swelling to settle, this can even take up to a year! Hope this helps x
hey chloe! would you mind giving more info about the bone graft? how long did your recovery of your hip take? do you have any side effects from that? also, is there any chance that the downgrafting is unstable? sending love from canada!
Hi Eden, thanks for your question! My hip was a little sore to walk on, but all in all, the scar healed really nicely and I didn't have too much trouble with it at all :) I don't know all the details, but they took a bit of bone from my hip, mixed it together with a special bone glue and then used it structurally in my jaw! With this "created" bone and titanium screws, everything should be pretty stable and not affect your body's acceptance of the new materials :)
I just had Double Jaw Surgery recently on August 9th 2022 & I also was wired shut for 3 weeks if you don’t mind me asking did you ever experience numbness inside your mouth & if so how long & are you able to taste your food again? & how was it trying to chew for the first time in a long time? also this video is very informative❤
You look wonderful!!! Did you have any time of face spasms as the nerves came back? I am almost three weeks post op and I have some face spasms occurring.
I had jaw surgery 5 months ago and this actually made me feel a lot better - I was wondering if the numbness went away completely yet for you? I have actually the same thing this tingly-ness in the left side of my chin and lower lip and then a little bit on the end of my nose and near cheeks (but really what annoys me is the chin). Also if it did go away did it all go away at once and when? (I know i should be calm because i'm not even at the 6 month mark but it helps to hear others experiences too).
Hey Karina, I'm just past a year now and I still have slight numbness in my chin. My muscles still get kinda sore if Im smiling or talking all day! You're doing awesome, thanks for your comment xxx
Hi, thank you for posting your experience. Did you have problems or any health issue while taking your medications? Cause i supossed taking all those pills diluted in water would evetually hurt your esophagus and stomach.
Hi there! It was definitely encouraged to take medication with food, making sure my stomach was ok to absorb it all! I didn’t spend too long on medication which was great, I think I was done with all medication (bar paracetamol!) after about two weeks, so definitely not a big digestion or stomach issue! Hope this helps :)
The fact that you can breath better through your nose is because now you can place your tongue in your palate properly which you couldn't do prior to surgery due to your underbite. You can check out more about Mewing and Myo functional therapy. Any, great result. I am still looking for a good surgeon to fix my breathing and sleeping problem.
No it's not because of that. Moving the upper and lower jaw forward, increases the airway space behind the jaws. Moving the lower jaw forward also moves the tongue forward, further reducing obstructions. Mewing and proper tongue posture is just the correct way to go forward after surgery. It does not fix severe skeletal issues in adults. It can however guide growth in children.
Do u need to be a certain weight before going into surgery, because I’m scared that I’m going to lose a lot of weight because my mouth is going to be shut and I wouldn’t be able to eat properly. Thx
You're so beautiful. Gonna go and check how you were before, and then decide to do it or not lol Edit: before you looked cute, now you look cute + astonishing. Wanna be cute and astonishing too! I'm doing it.
