I suffered from birth trauma as my mum's umbilical cord was wrapped round my neck, resulting in several asymmetries and my previous surgeon botched the procedure. Now, I have a tilted nose and find in hard to breathe, a slanted chin, severe cheek and jaw asymmetry and a lot of loose skin and excess fat such that it comes in between my teeth when I bite. Wanted to do facelift and fat removal, cheek and jaw implants, genioplasty and septoplasty. How many procedures/sittings needed. Thank you

Answer: Its possible It is harder to give you a definitive answer without any photos to go on, but it is possible to do everything at once. We would start with the genioplasty and implants first, then the facelift last. You potentially may not need the facelift after that because those procedures would tighten the skin and create more contour. Same goes for the fat removal; you may not need it. This is one of those things that we may not know until we reach that point in the surgery (Unsure of your age but that is a factor). As for the nose, it sounds like you may need a rhinoplasty and septoplasty. We might recommend doing that separately because it is a more delicate procedure, but that depends on your current anatomy. Because of the amount of procedures being done, this would have to be done under full anesthesia. We would be happy to schedule a virtual or in-person consultation to discuss options further!

Answer: Facial surgery Those are a lot of things to have done all at once. The surgery could be lengthy and also there could be airway issues having surgery on the nose and jaw at the same time. Cheek and jaw implants I have found particularly useless and troublesome

Answer: Staging the surgery Without series of good photos and in person consultation, it is impossible to give you meaningfull aneswer. In many cases like yours it may be better to stage procedures, wait to see what result is achieved and than plan next stage. Complex problem like yours may not always be delt in one surgery regardless how experienced your surgeon is. Hope this helps.
