It's not the same thing, but it looks like you haven't got a match yet. I'm in my 40's and just had jaw surgery about 6 months ago. Everyone I could find seemed wildly glad they'd done it. I'm relatively early in recovery and still somewhat annoyed with the process. However, my teeth line up how they should now so that's pretty sweet. (That was the reason for it.) Also my face isn't crooked any more and my tongue has more room and apparently I don't snore any more.
It sounds like the tongue tie surgery is much less invasive and stuff in your mouth heals pretty quick. (All I'm waiting for at this point is nerves and bone.) I ultimately decided to go ahead with it even though I feel like I'm pretty old, because I figure I should live at least another 40 years, and 40 years is a long, long time. May as well make it a little better if possible.
