Guest guest Posted December 20, 2002 Report Share Posted December 20, 2002 Congratulations on your weight loss. I personally an from Texas so I don't know about any plastic surgeons in Georgia. Have you considered asking your Bariatric Surgeon or your insurance company? Those would probably be the best places to begin. Good luck on your search. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas CHF 4/14/01 479 lbs.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Hi all- I'm Ellen, and I had surgery May 12th - Lefort I maxillary osteotomy, mandible advancement 8mm and the bones in my nose shaved I have a zillion questions and comments, but right now the main thing on my mind is the current look of my upper lip over my teeth. I know there is much healing to be done and swelling to abate, but it seems to me that my face looks a bit " short " - as if perhaps the teeth were impacted TOO far up, and I worry how I will look in the end. Have you heard of this being a significant risk? Has this actually happened to anyone? In general, how ARE the results- thrilled? worth it? ho-hum? yikes? I appreciate your feedback, in advance.
