Your advice for specialist surgeon who could help me for my lip ??
No change still now for esthetical and functional problems due to the lip surgery done by Dr Dombard in Belgium. I saw a lot of surgeons all over the world (Europe and USA), a big waste of time, money and energy to try to find solutions to this mess. Because of functional problems of my upper lip I had to stop singing (I miss it a lot) and I've a lot of problems to speak a long time during meetings, so I avoid this kind of situation but it's a problem for my work. It will be very difficult to repair and improve the very bad result of the lip surgery but I still try. For functional problems, I now try to regain some sensitivity with the help of a physiotherapist who's specialist in electrotherapy, it's my 8th consultation. I hope it will help. For esthetical I've no solution. I should make a kind of lip lift to bring up my falling lip but I'm afraid of the result and visible scars. My lip should also be reduced and the outline of my lip redrawn. If anyone has any advice to find a really good surgeon who could help me to repair my lip, please tell !!?? Because that ruins my life every day since 5 years, this without forgetting the other missed parts of my face and my breathing problems which are not resolved. My nightmare goes on...
(I live in Belgium, sorry for my bad english)...
(I live in Belgium, sorry for my bad english) After a nose surgery, my white lip became too long but I founded the curve and size of my lips perfect.
To reduce the white lip, the Dr. has adviced to make a lip advancement in which the incision is made at the border of the lip and white tissue removed to allow for advancing the red lip upward. The result was not natural, with a scare and my lip was too big (I saw after on internet and with other surgeons that that kind of surgery is not advice in any case and give bad results! ;-(.
Because my lip was then become too big, the Dr has then reduced the red lip by inside the mouth.
Results: now my upper lip is no more beautiful (the drawing/curve), with a visible scare, not natural and still too big and the white lip is still too long : 2 cm (we don't see my teehts when I open the mouth). But also (very important), now it's like if my uper lip was always asleep (and the surgery was done more than two years ago). It's a problem for me every day when I speak and I had stop to sing.
I had other surgeries in the same time with this surgeon and everything is wrong.
I was model 20 years ago and today is the first time in my life that I feel me ugly.
I feel very bad, to make this surgeries is the worth thing in my live. It's very hard for me and has a lot of consequences in my life (private and professional).
Today I'm sad like that. Except Dr Cornette de Saint Cyr in France or Dr Rodriguez, Dr Hornedski in USA I've found no specialist for lips in my country.
Could you give me your advice :
1/ Would it possible to reduce my upper lip even more (because it was already reduced once + my lip is like asleep) ?
2/ Would the lip lift adviced in my case to reduce the white lip (after having reduce the red lip because the lip lift make the reed lip bigger)?
3/ If yes, would you advice me lip lift or italian lip lift ?
4/ What about scars and natural effect with this kind of surgery (take care that my nose goes up, without hollow under the columella)?
Thanks for your help and advices
