Midface one based tbh but i don't think any maxfax willing to perform such a procedure. You don't know the growth gonna follow the vector, but asking @Sergio-OMS is best option imo he is official surgeon.

This vid honestly showed some very interesting and potentially useful movements, even Ramus lengthening was displayed.

Ramus lengthening looks look legit bcz, direction of growth vector is downward same with gravity.

hasn't caught on for non deformed patients bc it's more brutal & involved than osteotomy

arguably more painful, more opportunities for error/ complications

it'd be great if there was an easily implantable device for distracting things like the ramus tbh

Probably filler/implant.
