FFS went really wrong

So this is over 11 months, I had the first surgery with Facialteam in September, and the results were very subtle at first which upset me deeply.

They gradually improved to a point where I was almost happy with the result, but by then I had already booked a revision in Turkey with a popular and skilled ffs surgeon, he affirmed that there was still some residual masculine ‘boxiness’ and angularity that could be refined conservatively into a more v-shape.

I was thrilled by this of course, my fears were confirmed and the result was going to be corrected, I even ended up revising my brow lift slightly as well.

So I have the pre op consult, everything seems okay, I had a great deal of faith in this surgery, then I wake up afterward, eventually the bandages are taken off and I am horrified.

My lower face has been shortened drastically, the shape is more U than V and straighter, the chin has no definition and blends into the jaw and my jaw recession which I had come to terms with is now extremely prominent.

I’m 6 weeks post op atm so I know swelling masks certain aspects of the result, but fuck like I know this won’t ever be what I wanted, and I miss my old face deeply, revision is much more risky now especially since my mental nerve was damaged.. I’m kind of terrified, I feel ‘botched’, I’ve been offered revision options but I really don’t trust the process anymore.

TLDR:
Had two ffs surgeries and the second one went pretty horrifically and I might be stuck with it.

Really worried about my ffs revision
