Asian Double Eyelid Surgery 4 Days Before Asian Rhinoplasty?

Hi Doctors, would you recommend a patient getting a Double eyelid Surgery with Ptosis repair four days before Rhinoplasty? I already have a double eyelid from suture technique but Im suffering from Ptosis, could Ptosis be repaired without having to do incision double eyelid surgery? Would getting eyelid surgery first affect the nose? I'm doing each procedure from different Doctors in the same town this week.
