If you want to know more about why I had the surgery, what the surgery was like, the pain, the food, etc. I have been documenting the whole experience! Let me know if you have any questions 🥰 ruclips.net/p/PL_tjwPSUevpFhVy52MHJvrTMQtyFDLkQM
Looking great! I know your a little impatient with the swelling. Remember good things come from consistency and patience. The comparison picture really showed the change. Merry Christmas!
You may have answered this already but when do you get the braces and rubber bands removed? And honestly, I didn't noticed a different until you did the side by side. I can definitely see now why you had it done. But either way, I think you are beautiful. Thanks for the journey! Happy Holidays :)
Hi Kait, thanks for sharing the progress. Today I'm on my 5th day after surgery. My friends never believed I needed surgery and even after using 2 years of braces, they were telling I didn't need?! I was getting angry at first and trying to defend myself, then I decided not to give any importance what they think and not even answer this king of comments. Because I am the one who sees myself in the mirror and I had this jaw in my mouth which made me uncomfortable by looking asymmetrical. Also, you can't expect from everyone to be at the same mental level with you :)) I consider this jaw correction experience as not only physical development but also personal one. I supported myself and my feelings no matter what others think and I feel much stronger now. I sincerely think you look much better now. I wanted share my feelings as I saw your sad video and weird bad comments. Take care!
Kait you look fabulous, happy and healthy! Those photos say a lot-not just about how you look but also about how you were feeling emotionally. Recovery is difficult and scary. I had a facelift and upper blepharoplasty on Dec 8th. It’s a simple procedure compared to yours. But I had complications that were dangerous and scary. Sometimes the pain meds made me a bit wackadooodle. Anyways, your video is a well documented photo journal of your recovery! Thanks for sharing. Stay well and Merry Christmas!!!
Your bite looks perfect-And you can fully smile! 😄 Are you able to finally bite through food and keep your jaw closed comfortably? I bet it’s far less fatiguing now. People with good bites do not understand how much jaw misalignments affect overall health. Good for you for getting this done and sharing your experience. 👍🏼
Thank you!!! 😁 Yes! Its such a weird feeling being able to close it and keep it closed. When I used to smile I would never have it closed at at the end on day 30 you can see when I smile I automatically smile with it open 😅 then realise and close it. My teeth are still generally sore so haven't put them too much to the test but yes, I can bite through thin things! Woohoooo!!!
You are the cutest, Kait!! That side by side at the end really shows off the difference in your bite 🤯 sooo happy for you and love seeing that you’re recovering well! 🙌🏻
Watching your stuff is kinda of calming for me because I’m so scared. I’m having this done this Wednesday and just knowing that you did it and showed what to expect really helps.
Merry Christmas Kait! You’ve been such a trooper since the beginning, I’m so happy to see you becoming more and more confident with your new jaw everyday! 😊 seeing how much you’ve progressed gives me so much hope for my one month post-op mark (only a few days left!). No pressure to keep sharing if you don’t want to ofc, but documenting your recovery has been so much help to me. I just want to say thank you again! 💕
Thank you so much for making your jaw surgery videos!! It has really helped me through my own process in making this decision for myself. You look fabulous and I hope I can have just as good results as you did! I have come across a few youtubers who hate their after look and It just bums me out. So thankful again for your videos!! Please keep posting more! 😊
So glad to hear that Vanessa! 🥰 I too watched a few videos of people unhappy with their results... I think most people end up happy but there is a period where the swelling is mostly down, but not fully, where you look in the mirror and think "what have I done"?! 😂
So glad to hear in the comments that your molars line up flat and your bite is perfect. You’re on your way, Kait! Merry Christmas and I hope the New Year brings you many blessings. You look marvelous!
Young lady! Do not worry about the haters on any type of social media! You keep doing what you do and drive on! 💯 the only time to worry is when you stop having haters! 😉
I had double jaw surgery December 2nd and have been watching you progress to keep my head up! thanks for sharing and good luck with the swelling sis I feel you 💜💜
@@MoreKait i’m 5 weeks tomorrow and all the inside of my mouth is all cut so not doing that great :( I also have a splint in since i had my top jaw split to be a little wider.. i get that out on the 13th and i can not wait i hate having a lisp!!! I’m excited for it to all be over with
@@kayleejohnson9487 ugh my braces were absolutely cutting up my lips at the start 😥 The splint does not sound fun but only a few more days with it to go!
YAY Girl!!! Looking so good. Love that your teeth are meeting up and straight 👏👏👏. Is your first meal noodles?? You'll nail them Kait! I'm so so happy for you that the first month is done and behind you. Phew! I feel I need a holiday so I can only imagine how you feel 🤗🤗🤗🤗. Good for you Sweetie!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍
(Harry here) Well Kait your looking really good, I would think that talking would hurt though in the beginning. When I saw you right after the surgery I kept pushing on my own jaw because it just looked like it hurt when you talked. Well almost better now it looks like the worst part is over.
Looking good Kait!! I already see a huge difference in your jaw line and smile. 🤗 I never went through with the surgery but I have a cross bite and it was recommended that I get palette surgery where the roof of my mouth would be broken and I would need to have a spacer with a key to widen the palette. I just went with the braces to fix the over crowding on the top left side of my mouth. I can’t say I know how surgery feels but I did still get the key and went through the braces and rubber bands period. Lol eat that spaghetti proudly now!!!
Great! No distracting tee shirts with logos from obscure 'brands' like Mr. Winston (or whatever) whereby I'm fixated on your chest and below but can't read the second line of the message...Oh, that didn't come out right but you get the gist of it. Looking good Kait! Move on....
hey, kait! thank you for this video! I'm currently recovering from this surgery and I've been wired shut for almost 3 weeks now. I finally get rubber bands next week, is it easier to talk with the rubber bands?
Kait! Lookin better everyday. I was wondering, it has been 30 days. How hot is it going to be there next year when you are 100% ? 😬🌹🎄🎅 ....................... 😎👍👍
When did they remove the screws out of your mouth, this is my 6th day and my lower face is so tight! I look like a Muppet! Wondering if taking rubber bands and screws allows for the mouth to be less stiff looking..
@@MaximGolovlev I hope your healing is fast and that your nostril clears up! We’ve come this far and it’s only going to get better from here. You’ve got this!
That first week looked like the worst of it. Occlusion seems about perfect after surgery though. A little fine tuning and your new normal is going to be great.
Hey! How long do the rubber bands have to stay on post surgery? I’m debating getting braces and jaw surgery for an overbite and TMJ pain, but I’m nervous about how long it will all take. Thanks!
The bands came off 5 weeks post op and then I just had some to wear at night. I am getting my braces off start of May so I will have had them on for 14 months total 🙂 Which really isn't long!
Do you still have a little swelling on your cheek? I do and it’s been almost 4 weeks since my surgery so I’m kinda nervous bc I don’t know if it’s normal or not
Bc of whoever said you did it for cosmetic reasons…. Then it didn’t work? Bc you were beautiful before and you’re beautiful now and your face is just as lovely as before. If there’s a difference, I’m not fixing to examine your features like some doctor lol bc it’s YOUR face and yours to do with as you see fit for your happiness. You keep being the sweet and informative and loving young woman that you are. I hope that this procedure makes it easier for you to function and sleep better be everything you wished it to help you with. You’re a gem darling. Some people just wanna keep the shine of you, dull. Keep not minding their nonsense doll. You are spectacular. ❤️

@@anabelle251 I actually experienced some pain around my nose and sinuses but now I'm all good. Missing solid food lmao
@@PurpleNati same I was not expecting sinus pain lol. I miss solids too😭 my friends keep unintentionally posting delicious looking food pics
I’m only 4 days past my surgery but seeing this made me a lot happier
That’s awesome. Looks like it’s been a speedy recovery so far! I hope you’re not in too much pain by now.
No pain after the first 1.5 weeks 🤗
You are very pretty. Also your coaching has helped me beat my type 2 diagnosis. Thank you and thank God. Merry Christmas
Thanks John! And so happy to hear that! Merry Christmas! 🥰

You're past the worst of it! 😁
A Fighter always Wins in Life.
🥰🥰
So that’s pretty stunning progress
🥰🥰
@@MoreKait knew you’d get a bit of turkey for Xmas 😁
Healing is progressing well. One thing I’ve noticed since the surgery is your left upper eyelid seems to droop lower when you’re relaxed. FWIW.
It was like that before 😅
Whew, at least it’s not a new thing from the surgery. 😀
Merry Christmas 👏☃️🥰
Thank you! Merry Christmas! ❤️
i got mine done today, and i’m still at hospital. my face swelled up like a balloon. the only complaint i rly have is all the blood im coughing up
Gonna do mine in 1,2 years can’t wait
@@DavidsSanity good luck. it’s way harder than i thought it’d be and i’m a week post op 💪
Thanks so much for this I love u
Merry Xmas!!!!
You're looking great 😃 merry Christmas to you.. I hope you enjoy your Christmas Dinner 😊🌲
Merry Christmas Mark! 😁
Looking good Kait!! I already see a huge difference in your jaw line and smile. 🤗
I never went through with the surgery but I have a cross bite and it was recommended that I get palette surgery where the roof of my mouth would be broken and I would need to have a spacer with a key to widen the palette.

Thanks Barbara! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🥰
You look great! Every day!😎😁
Thanks John! 🥰
i have the same surgery tomorrow and I'm worried can you pls tell me how you post surgery and the recovery timeline
Awww so cute!
Great! No distracting tee shirts with logos from obscure 'brands' like Mr. Winston (or whatever) whereby I'm fixated on your chest and below but can't read the second line of the message...Oh, that didn't come out right but you get the gist of it. Looking good Kait! Move on....
What??? Where's the lip swelling??? My lips looked like bloody twinkies for the first week. And they're still pretty swollen now 2 weeks later.
You look way younger after surgery, it turned back the clock for you
Did they do the surgery with your braces on? I thought you had to finish orthodontics first then get surgery.
When could you breathe again? Cause I’m just waiting until the day I can breathe again. I could care less about the swelling after that
hey, kait! thank you for this video! I'm currently recovering from this surgery and I've been wired shut for almost 3 weeks now. I finally get rubber bands next week, is it easier to talk with the rubber bands?
I’m on day 4 thanks for this video. You’re American living in Australia?
Canadian 🥰
In Australia though, yes.
@@MoreKait so cool! 😊
@@bella____________9690 just uploaded ♥️ ruclips.net/video/BF1__vPJj_Y/видео.html
you can have lash extensions on during surgery?
Kait! Lookin better everyday. I was wondering, it has been 30 days. How hot is it going to be there next year when you are 100% ? 😬🌹🎄🎅 ....................... 😎👍👍
🙊🙊
You didn’t even get swollen. I just got it yesterday. I blew up like a balloon
Amazing
🤗🤗
When did they remove the screws out of your mouth, this is my 6th day and my lower face is so tight! I look like a Muppet! Wondering if taking rubber bands and screws allows for the mouth to be less stiff looking..
Never! The screws are staying in. Your face will look tight til about 3-4 months. That's when I noticed the biggest improvements ❤️
I had a double jaw surgery 12 days ago and I still look like you on day 8 😅
I’m on week 3 and some change and am still pretty swollen! Everyone’s body recovers differently. Hang in there! Hope your recovery goes well!
@@armp8051 hey, 25th day and still moderately swollen mostly on the left, one nostril not fully functional and I have a nasal voice
@@MaximGolovlev I hope your healing is fast and that your nostril clears up! We’ve come this far and it’s only going to get better from here. You’ve got this!
Does extreme pain feels after surgery?
Hi is it pain full please answer
Hi Kait. Glad you are mending well. How soon until you can get the orthodontics out of your mouth?
Got the bands off on Wednesday and was told braces should be off in less than 5 months 😁
That first week looked like the worst of it. Occlusion seems about perfect after surgery though. A little fine tuning and your new normal is going to be great.
Yes, it got so much better after the first week!
Does it pain

This surgery is more about mental toughness.
Do you still have a little swelling on your cheek? I do and it’s been almost 4 weeks since my surgery so I’m kinda nervous bc I don’t know if it’s normal or not
Totally normal! I wasn’t until 3 months post surgery that my swelling was almost all gone.
Bc of whoever said you did it for cosmetic reasons…. Then it didn’t work? Bc you were beautiful before and you’re beautiful now and your face is just as lovely as before.

It was for non-cosmetic reasons.
