Joan came to see us to treat her severe sleep apnea.
After undergoing two tonsillectomies, Joan hadn't noticed any improvement and had to sleep with a CPAP machine, but she refused to spend the rest of her life dependent on such an uncomfortable device. Therefore, she decided to undergo orthofacial surgery performed by Professor Hernández Alfaro, which consisted of:
- Maxillary expansion and advancement
- Mandibular advancement and counterclockwise rotation
- Mentoplasty
- Bilateral turbinectomy
A year later, Joan is sleeping much better, as confirmed by her latest sleep study.
