If it makes you look obviously unnatural, yeah. So many hardmaxxers end up looking like they have Down syndrome.

i’m getting a bi max to close the overbite
 
Well they're moving both jaws. You can only move the mandible by jutting, not the lower maxilla.

So no, the lip competence will be different. Most surgeons will provide 3D planning to show you before-hand roughly how you will look.

are you sure they’d move the maxilla for an overbite cel?

depends on your face obviously. but yeah probably

they can't do CCW rotation without moving the maxilla and you want that unless you are not that recessed
 
i’m only a few millimetres behind
then you probably need bimax if you're significantly recessed, unless the reason your lower teeth are only a few mm behind is that they lean forward significantly, or if you want to get extractions and decompensation
