Use braces that left me 5 mm overjet and normal overbite without extractions. I have a short lower face so the genioplasty would be horizontal and vertical to improve the labiomental sulcus.

Answer: Chin and bite If malocclusion exists, then jaw advancement is indicated. This movement will open up the labiomental fold and give height to lower facial 1/3.

Answer: Sliding Genioplasty It is important to recognize that the labiomental sulcus is a fixed anatomic point of the chin. It will not become less deep from a sliding genioplasty (as it lies above the level of the bone movement) and can even get deeper as the chin bone moves forward. Filling in the bony stepoff of the sliding genioplasty can help lower the risk of labiomental fold deepening. But it certainly will not make it become less than before surgery. Making the labiomental fold less deep, whether a sliding genioplasty is performed or not, requires a direct approach to it.

Answer: Genioplasty and lower lip Any chin alteration will not move the lip forward and could actually make the lip more upright. The lip gets support from the teeth so your best option to balance the upper and lower lips is a lower jaw advancement. So correcting the bite and the profile at the same time
