Can I combine an alarplasty with Italian lip lift? And how many days would it take to look publicly acceptable?

Asked By:undonelife2 in Alexander City, AL

I had a rhinoplasty without alarplasty on december 2018. I am still not satisfied I need a narrower nostris and to lift my upper lip. I noticed that lip lift would widen the nostrils and alarplasty may cause the upper lip a little drop down. So can I mix them together to avoid the headache of repeating the recovery time?
