Will a sliding genioplasty make my chin longer?

lydiajae
I'm a 21 year old female with a slightly recessive chin. I'm interested in getting a genioplasty, but I don't want my chin to be/appear longer from the front. Will a genioplasty always make the chin look longer? Can it be moved forward and up instead of forward and down?
