Can you get a lip lift and Rhinoplasty at the same time?
Answer: It depends... You asked a good question, but the answer depends on details. If you are considering the type of lip lift where an incision is made along the entire base of the nose, and also considering an open rhinoplasty where there is an incision across your columella (the bridge between your nostrils), that would be a really bad combination! The tiny bridge of skin between the two incisions would be at great risk for lack of blood flow. If your doctor is even considering this combination, run away- fast! A rhinoplasty requires sedation, a lip lift not necessarily. I agree with the other Doc who suggested staging the procedures for reasons he stated.

Answer: A lip lift and rhinoplasty can be done at the same time. This combination of the aesthetic procedures can easily be done at the same time. Consider video imaging is a good way to appreciate the anticipated results.

Answer: LIP LIFT AND RHINOPLASTY NJ This is something that can certainly be performed at the same time, as long as the bottom of the nose (alar base) does not require adjustment. I typically perform an endonasal lip lift which provides the advantage over other techniques of limited visibility of scars. Your best bet is consultation w/ a board-certified, experienced surgeon!Best of luck!

Answer: You can do both HiThanks for your interesting question. There are many types of lift lifts and multiple approaches to the nose. There is obviously much less concern when having an endonasal surgery combined with lateral lip maneuvers. There used to be some concern with having an open rhinoplasty combined with a "bull horn" lip lift. A recent study showed that combining these procedures can be quite safe in experienced hands. I have combined these as well in my own practice.
