Hello, I'm a 30 year old woman who had bimaxillary protrusion treatment for 4 years. I had my 4 teeth extracted. I used to have plump lips and cheeks, however now my lips looks narrow and thin with lower alignment, my cheeks are looking sunken. I have saggy skin around my lips. When I speak, my lower teeth shows all the time. I'm very unhappy with the results, I can't even look at the mirror anymore. My treatment ended last year, is there anything to reverse this treatment back?
