Will moving the upper jaw only downward affect the nose in jaw surgery?

Asked By:Graceful8518 in New York, NY

I was told I needed double jaw surgery for underdeveloped jaws, however, I have wanted a rhinoplasty for a long time. I was told my upper jaw only needed to be moved downward, not forward or backwards. Will this affect my nose at all? Would a horseshoe lefort be best?
