After consulting with over 15 surgeons, I have gotten mixed information. For my case, I would like to de project, lengthen and de rotate. While some of the surgeons suggest waiting at least 1 year, I also have several saying that’s it’s better to revise these issues between 8-10 months post op because these issues do not get better with time and the skin with contract etc. can I pls get more input on this topic of timeline? Its hard to know how to make the best decision if I should wait or not.
