How to properly plan jaw surgery (DJS, trimax, orthogonatic)

What movements do you think are the best for someone that has sfs?
SFS usually comes with a normal or longer ramus and a normal or acute gonial angle, so the best option is a standard BSSO cut. There’s no need to change the ramus or gonion, and you get better bone contact due to better bone overlap. You can also consider condylar torque if you need more width. The usual movements are clockwise rotation and maxillary downgrafting and ofc advancement.
Do you need to know all this terminology or just accept what the surgeon suggest?
I don't think so, just have basic knowledge about CW, CCW, downgraft/impaction, setback, and advancement. The more important thing is to consult with multiple surgeons, And don't overdo the maxilla, and ideally get braces beforehand.
 
So pre-existing huh. That's interesting. Idk what can be done about it.
Yeah, Ramieri is very conservative with maxillas—he is very aware of this. I've never seen a chimp lip from him, tbh
