In the interest of getting the procedures done with and the healing over all at once, I'm wondering if I could have 2 surgeries (rhino + labiaplasty) performed by 2 different doctors in the same session or very close together. Most docs don't specialize in both procedures so I'd have to see 2 surgeons. Could I get the labiaplasty first and go in for rhino while I was still healing?
Answer: Combining surgery Dear Mixxtape,Yes it is possible to combine two different doctors in the same session. I would recommend finding two separate doctors that specialize in these procedures. This way you can save time in the operating room. Best regards,Nima Shemirani

Answer: To aesthetic procedures can be performed by two separate surgeon's if the schedule can be coordinated. What you describe is really not that uncommon. Often times the issue is coordinating the schedule of the surgeon's.

Answer: Multiple procedures There are likely several surgeons in your area that would be quite good at performing both rhinoplasty and labiaplasty surgery. And completing them at the same time would not be contra-indicated. Trying to find two different surgeons that would be able to complete them at the same time would be unusual. If that is your preference, you might want to look into an academic practice or a large group practice that has several surgeons that utilize the same operating facilities. Otherwise, the logistics will be cumbersome.

Answer: Rhinoplasty and labiaplasty Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. While it is possible to have this done, it would be much easier and more cost effective to find a surgeon who can do both procedures for you. There are many good surgeons who specialize in both of these areas. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Can you combine surgery by different doctors Lots of plastic surgeons are specialists in both labiaplasty and rhinoplasty. If there are none in your area, you may wish to seek a physician farther away. It is also possible for two physicians to do a combination procedure although this always presents logistical issues. It is hard to get two separate plastic surgeons available at the same time and cost may be prohibitive. Remember, also, that labiaplasty can sometimes be performed under local anesthesia in the office (most that I do are performed this way) and a rhinoplasty could be scheduled shortly thereafter. All things equal, one would schedule the rhinoplasty after a labiaplasty if general anesthesia is contemplated.
