Glad you saw my message here. Thx very much for the link.

I wanted to chime in with my experience, I had MMA surgery and a sliding Geno 11 months ago. My chin is still really tight although it still feels like it is improved my but so little. My surgeon said if would take a year but it feels like I have way more healing still. Or I hope I do, as I don't wa...

I had the same procedure done as well along with double jaw surgery for sleep apnea. I am at 11 months and the chin tightness continues to get better. At 6 months it was still extremely tight.
