Would I benefit from a genioplasty or bimax surgery?

In general after a lefort 1 osteotomy the muscles and structures of the lip are disrupted and can lead to post op shorting of the philtrum. To prevent this in some cases, a special type of closure is perofrmed. This closure is called a V-to-Y closure. This help maintain philtrum length....

Thank you for the question. It is a common occurrence for the ala width to be wider following LeFort surgery so most surgeons control this by placing ala cinch sutures at the end of the surgery. The end result should be no difference between before and after surgery in regards to the width.

Upper jaw surgery can impact the maxilla upwards and reduce the nose / lip distance and amount of exposed gum.
