Chin burring reduction.

Leading up to surgery, Dr. Eppley had made it sound like an Inside the mouth incision was not an issue at all. Now, I have severe problems with my muscle every time it moves I feel awkwardness. On top of that, my chin is protrudes further out than before and is extremely uncomfortable. He left me with an irregular look that I had to seek revision on. He completely ignored my requests. Complete distaste for his surgeon practices. I looked better before than now after seeing him. I should never have paid for his incompetence.

this doctor is always replying to queries on this site. so there is a big difference in giving medical advice and actually doing surgeries. it appears that even a board certified surgeon cannot guarantee a good result.
You are correct. A thorough Google search on this doctor is advised.
Wish we could see before and after pics.

he sowed me up from the inside. I was surprised that I can't even put my tongue in the pocket of my mouth. he never told me that would happen. I could hardly ever get an answer from him. I got a revision surgery done. he cut one corner of my chin and left the other side still intact leaving a dissymmetry appearance.
Hi there. What caused your chin to stick out further than before, since it was a reduction? Do you know how much was removed in mms or have before pictures/x-rays to hand?
I am confused, if he burred ur chin it wouldn't stick out further. What did he say about the pain and probleems with the muscle? Did u do this under general anesthesia?
I wish your chin surgery had turned out as good as mine. Dr. Eppley burred my chin and it turned out great,,,
