Is It Safe To Get a Rhinoplasty Plus Breast Lift At Once?

I am contemplating a rhinoplasty in addition to my scheduled breast lift. My plastic surgeon said it would be safe to do both and would start with the breast lift under twilight sedation, then move on to the rhinoplasty switching to general anethesia. Is this common and low risk on a healthy adult?

A: Combining rhinoplasty and breastlift

As long as you are healthy the combination surgery should be fine. You may want to understand why 2 different anesthetics are necessary - seems like general anesthesia the whole way through would be a good option.

Qualifications of a Surgeon for Rhinoplasty Procedure?

I am considering a rhinoplasty proceedure. I have looked into an ent surgeon and also a surgeon that has an oral and maxillo facial background. Both are certified by the american board of platic surgery. Who would be better at this proceedure? I am mainly focusing on the tip part of my nose for this proceedure as it is quit bulbous. I do not have a large bump on my nose. I do understand that i still may need my nasal bones broken even if i am mainly conserned about my tip. Thanks! :)

A: Who is best qualified to perform a rhinoplasty?

You have entered into an area of debate--who knows how to best perform a rhinoplasty? Qualified surgeons may be trained in ENT and facial plastic surgery, general plastic surgery, or maxillofacial surgery. How does one decide? Just being accredited by some society doesn't necessarily mean they are a skilled surgeon. Your best bet is to talk to patients who have had surgery by these doctors, and look at their before and after photos. Make sure the doctor understands what your goals are from surgery. That is the only way you can decide which surgeon better suits your neeeds.

How Long from Consult to Surgery for a Rhinoplasty?

I have been considering a rhinoplasty for the past ten years, and finally have the means (and the bravery!) to go for it. As such, I'm ready to do it as soon as possible. How long does it typically take between the initial consult and the surgery? I'm in the process of scheduling consults with docs the second week of December, but would really love to have my surgery before Christmas so that I'll have the holidays to recover. Too rushed?

A: Do Your Homework The span from Consultation to Surgery in a mature plastic surgery practice is commonly 1-2 months given the number of surgeries already scheduled. But if you've done your homework and really get to know the surgeon and ask all your questions with satisfactory answers, the surgical staff can often get you squeezed in without too much difficulty! I typically like to meet with my cosmetic patients twice before they book, and a third time about 1-2 weeks prior to the case to take care of any remaining issues. But even I tend to allow for streamlining of this process around the busy holiday season. Good luck and don't feel rushed!
