Can I get chin liposuction one week after a rhinoplasty?

Question

I’d like to have them close together so I don’t have to take more time off work to recover. My rhinoplasty surgeon doesn’t perform any other procedures so I can’t get them done at the same time. Is it safe to have a procedure with local anesthesia so soon after one with general?

Yes, you should be able to have chin liposuction one week after rhinoplasty and it may be possible to perform these procedures at the same time. I hope this helps.

It would be possible to have liposuction under the chin one week after a rhinoplasty.  There should not be any issue with having a procedure with local anesthesia a week after one with general anesthesia.

John L. Burns Jr., MD · Answer

Yes, you should be able to stage those procedure within a week of each other.  You might find a surgeon who could do your chin liposuction in the office under local anesthesia to avoid having anesthesia twice.

Hello dearThanks for the question and provided information as well.    My recommendation is to wait at least one month to have the liposuction. You need to feel better before having another procedure. I recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic  surgeon for a good evaluation and to talk about your goals.Good luck :)

Yes it is possible to undergo neck liposuction under local anesthesia after your rhinoplasty. When performing general anesthesia, it's best to separate the two procedures/ anesthetics at least a month apart.
