Difference Between Facial Plastic Surgeon or Plastic Surgeon and an ENT or Otolaryngologist?

I was wondering what the difference is between an ear nose and throat doctor and a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon? Can my ENT do my nose job ok if I went to him for a deviated septum?

**Note from RealSelf** Our site is designed to help consumers make confident choices and the below answers have lost this spirit.

To see the criteria RealSelf uses to list a doctor as a Facial Plastic Surgeon, please visit our Professional Policies.  Doctors listed as a 'Facial Plastic Surgeon' on RealSelf are eligible to discuss treatments and procedures for any "neck-up" procedures, including those of the face, ear, nose and throat areas.  As always, consumers should do their due-diligence in researching an individual doctors experience and credentials when choosing their surgeon.

A: Confused? Don't blame you

An otolaryngologist/head & neck surgeon is trained to operate on all structures in the head and neck excluding brains, spines, and eyeballs (in a nutshell). 25% of the board certification exam for otolaryngologists covers facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The term "ENT" is an abbreviation for an otolaryngologist.

Facial plastic & reconstructive surgeons can become board certified as such in one of two ways.  First, they can complete an accredited fellowship focusing in FPRS only for at least one year following completion of EITHER an "ENT" or plastic surgery residency. They must then complete an oral and written board exam and submit a case log of at least 1 1/2 years of procedures performed to establish competence. Alternatively, board-certified "ENTs" or plastic surgeons that do not complete a fellowship must submit a more extensive case log and pass the same exams. 

Hope that helps.

Lip Lift and Rhinoplasty

I am considering a rhinoplasty and an upper lift lip to improve the appearance of my face. I would like my nose to appear narrower and more feminine and I feel my upper lip is too small and too far away from my nose. Would these procedures be right for me? I have also read that they should not be performed at the same time. Is this true, could they be performed at separate times and which should be done first.

A: Lip Lift and Rhinoplasty

In general, you can lengthen the upper lip with a rhinoplasty by releasing the depressor septi muscles. This is actually a very nice effect in patients with a long face or a very short upper lip.

Would Restylane on Nasolabial Fold Affect Rhinoplasty?

I'm considering getting Restylane in nasolabial folds, but am also interested in Rhinoplasty in 2 months.

The Rhinoplasty would include alar base reduction. I'm just wondering if I should hold off on the filler, as I am concerned that the 'plane' for the new nostril positioning would be altered. Do you have any experience with Rhinoplasty and nasolabial fillers? thank you.

A: Rhinoplasty & Restylane in Nasolabial Folds

Rhinoplasty is not affected by injections around the perioral nasolabial fold area or even in the periapical base area. It does not have an affect on rhinoplasty.
