18+, jaw surgery is the best route for you.
Unlike few users here, you are a genuine candidate and it will actually make a difference.
Be happy with that fact don't live today for hope of a better tomorrow.

I’ve had a MARPE. I will be doing jaw surgery after. MARPE is kind of meh, it will make a slight difference in your appearance. My ortho says I got 10mm? But I have never seen a solid proof/analysis from them.

age?
 
If you do MARPE, you need to consider SFOT. Plan for both.

What are the benefits of MARPE?

Did you do orthodontics when you were younger?
Does it increase asymmetry, I heard expanders in general do

Any other complications/benefits?

MARPE expands the palate. Helps aesthetics. They say it expands airway too.

No ortho when I was younger, just wisdom teeth removal.

No asymmetry for me, but maybe there is a slight one.

Not splitting the suture, asymmetry, gum and teeth problems?

I’m not an expert, but a has a 8 nail device on my maxilla installed while I was a awake lol.

Looks more like an underbite than an overbite to me at first glance.
