Lower jaw surgery questions

[mavik]

I've been thinking about this and some questions might be low iq but just lmk:
Can it fix a longer philtrum by adding chin height?
Is it effective for correcting a lower jaw without touching the upper jaw?
Insights you have?

Depends how long the philtrum is ig. You can get a liplift if your midface isnt already compact.

It can fix your philtrum to chin ratio, but won’t actually change your philtrum length

Is it effective for correcting a lower jaw without touching the upper jaw?

Depends on your bite, bimax is probably a better option for most people though

Yeah that's what I meant

I thought of bimax but my maxilla is projected asf. its really only my lower jaw that needs adjustment. I can temporarily correct the issue by shifting my lower teeth forward, and that makes me think its not a true overbite. My molars align correctly, and i never had any issues with my bite, tho my upper teeth cover my lower teeth a bit more. Also, as bonus some nigga dentist made me bite on a paper then concluded i dont have an overbite

I see, are you sure it’s your lower jaw and not just your chin? Maybe just a genioplasty could work
