So you've had them in for less than a month just trust the process

but do you think herbset would be more effective? i mean my chin is Pretty recessed as u can see
(even with rhino my nose is over projected in comparison to my jaw)

Yes?
i dont think u understand my point

My nose is over projected even with my rhinoplasty due to my lack of projection of other features such as maxilla (jaw + chin)


meaning that if my lower third was more projected my nose would be almost ideal in proportion to my face

And heres months left in your braces treatment and you're posting this
Just wait a bit to see how the braces go then you can actually assess what you need

herbst appliance is tricky because it really only works during preteen years where your jaw is malleable. You might not get a lot of growth but its worth a try

If u want bimax in the future then whatever ur doing now is pretty much pointless, they’re likely gonna make u go on braces again in prep for the surgery

some kind of implan

Implants are mostly used to add bone mass, doesn’t rly benefit most women
