Can invisalign help class 2 malocclusion, small lower jaw, and a bad bite?

adh778
I saw an orthodontist who recommended braces and then jaw surgery. My lower jaw is too small and sits further back giving me an overbite and bad bite. I wanted to know if there’s any way to avoid having the surgery, will my smile/jaw look any less crooked after the invisalign? (just enough where I won’t feel as if I need it?)Would rubber bands paired with the invisalign help to pull my lower jaw forward, or is there anything else that might be able to other than jaw surgery?
