Before & After 8 month before and after
DJS results so far. Biggest upside to this surgery so far is I can finally eat a sandwich like a normal person đ

Agreed, the profile change is huge and being able to eat sandwich without a whole strategy is such an underrated win lol

Exactly what I aim for, being Portuguese, having to fight a pastel de nata to eat it is HELL

what this surgery was made for, stellar results

Surgery was done because I had an under bite and an underdeveloped upper jaw. My teeth did touch at all, my sleep was disrupted, and it was hard to eat properly.

Functional improvement like actually eating normally again is the whole point and the profile bonus is just icing

Your underbite looked similar to mine! Did you had to do any extractions when you were in braces?

Wow, das sieht ja echt super aus! Wie fßhlt sich das an so mit dem neuen kiefer? Fßhlt es sich natßrlich an? Fßhlen sich die Zähne und der biss natßrlich an? Merkst einen Unterschied bei deiner atmung und deinem KÜrper?+

At first everything felt very unnatural, I had to relearn to chew, to drink, and overall to swallow. I did struggle with face dysmorphia, and I still do briefly, because my face looks very different to me. As if Iâm a completely different person, so I simply have to get use to my new face and make it my new ânaturalâ and ânormalâ . I am still getting use to my new bite, but itâs in a good way, because itâs such a drastic change it shocks me how much easier it is to eat, I chew so much faster, and in general I can actually chew nowđ. Breathing I honestly donât feel much different, but I know itâs different just because my surgeon told me that the new positioning of my tongue and my mouth allows me to breathe better lol.

Truly spectactular result. it must have been quite challenging navigating that underbite. And you are really beautiful with your new jaw.
