surgery booked & planned for september with Dr Frans Noorman van der Dussen

procedures_
•sliding genioplasty
•mandibular angle reduction
•lower boarder mandibular shave

My chin is too vertically long and also too wide, I also suffer from a square boxy jaw.
I dream for a beautiful oval and feminine face! although I don't have much hopes for that, I do hope there will be an improvement I will be happy with . .

Also wish to have rhinoplasty surgery with Lucian Ion, whom I have consulted.

Thankyou, Oh yes I agree, nothing wrong with it at all if it compliments the rest of the face ! x

Yes. Hope your goes well. I know very well how it is to not feel the shape of you face brings balance or beauty to the overall look. I'm looking into a chin implant...so I have the opposite problem.

Yeah, I wish I had your problem though if it is any comfort! so much easier to fix and find a surgeon for as well as getting a better result.

Are you from Belgium? Because I am. I have been on a consultation with Frans Noorman van der Dussen. I have been thinking about making a change on my nose, chin and jawline as well. Could I add you anywhere so we can talk more freely?

But how come you went to see a surgeon in Blegium? :o Aren't surgeons in the UK usually better? btw have you already had surgery? :o

I didn't, he comes to the UK once a month however the surgery is done in Belgium. I haven't found or seen any evidence of any UK surgeons who have vast experience in the surgery that I want, which is chin reduction.

Thanx. Its all with its risks. I just think sometimes the risks might be worth it and othertimes not. Hoping mine is worth it. Will post pics when I go thru with it.

Hey. I've been on several consultations with this doctor and am planning on having sliding genioplasty done as well, along with rhinoplasty and something with my jaws.

because i wasn't confident that nvdd could provide the results I wanted and having seen no evidence that he could do what I want either. The work I have seen of his, is very subtle not really what I'm after.. so have decided to go with bart van den

Did Nvdd say something about the ideal shape of a female jaw and chin? Dr. Bart told me that the ideal jaw starts 3cm below the ears and that he would shave accordingly. However, I'm concerned how it would look getting older. Jaw bones lose volume when one gets older (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=125387566) I think it's better to be conservative as to be aggressive. It's really hard after plastic surgery to get used to your new look. It always looks worse than it does, because you're used to your old face. For me subtlety is what I want.
