How much vertical length can a sliding genioplasty add to my chin?

GreatKillar
Hey i want a taller and more masculine chin. I thought sliding genioplasty might be right for this. I've read that vertical increases from 10 to 12mm's are possible. Is this always true or is it possible that increases like that are too much? Keep in mind that i want my chin and my overall to look tall so i had no problem if the chin looks bigger than average after the surgery. But i'm also afraid there might be consequences. How will i know what is right for me?
