I'm so sorry to hear that! I went to TFD many years ago for sliding genioplasty but I remember waking up from the GA feeling the absolute worst and thinking I would never ever do something like this again (lol). I like my results and had a good experience with Dr Lee but agreed that the nurses were meh. I hope you are able to get the revision / help you need.

Update to my post : I recently consulted with a dentist and he said my lower gum was really damaged by dr lee and that’s why I have bone and gum recession now. I have to do a bone and gum graft for a cost of 3k now.
Thanks dr lee.
I'm so sorry :sad: thank you for warning people though and I hope you can find ways to alleviate your pain. wishing you the best

I should just have done genioplasty like you unfortunately I did the worst surgery and I cannot reverse it now.
Nurses were the worst indeed. I have never seen such bad medical technicians… I almost died from suffocation and they told me « you have to learn how to breath » 😰🤷‍♂️. WTF???????
They even told me the guy in the other room was less problematic than me. Like I was a drama queen ??! Wtfff
I explained the situation to dr lee and he didn’t help me about nurses.. when I asked to stay one more night and even proposed to pay more he just refused ?! Why ?! Because he had another patient waiting for a room… what a greedy man, I was so disappointed and angry. I came back to my airbnb and almost died from suffocation on the road. It was very hot outside… Honesly I don’t even know how I came back home.. survivor instinct maybe.
Please don’t go there…result is bad, afterward is bad, dr lee will act very kind and professional at first consult but when surgery is done he will ghost you (especially if you are not happy with result). And now I have a lot of breath and mouth issues after years..

I should have trust my instinct when I saw a girl crying in dr lee room during my first consult. I think this girl got botched too and came to complain..

I will update this post regularly about my issues with this surgery.. hope people will look at it.

I consulted with several dentist recently and they told me :
- I have gum and bone recession
- my gum is very damaged from the surgery they never seen such a bad gum before
- it’s so damaged that they are not sure they can do a gum graft on it
- I have bad occlusion that cause bruxism now. Bruxism will damage my teeth and gum with time and I need to wear a dental protector during the night now

Thanks but I almost gave up after contacting several surgeons. Most of them said my case was too complicated. I have to do a gum graft now because my bite is not good and it hurts my gum…. I also struggle to breath and septum surgery didn’t help so far 😞
Are you in the USA or Canada? Will insurance pay for your bone graft? especially given that you will gave dental issues as a result?
