Can I have rhinoplasty after I had cheek and under eye fillers?

Question

I want to have fillers to make my cheekbones higher and also for the eyes to reduce dark circles. Is it possible to have rhinoplasty while I have the fillers?

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

The presence of fillers should have no impact on having a rhinoplasty done.  You might want to mention this to your surgeon prior to surgery.

hi thank you for your question and provided information as well .. based on your question it is difficult to evaluate your case if you do not have a photo. My recommendation is that you be seen by your certified plastic surgeon in person.

Eugene Kim, MD · Answer

It should not be a problem to have a rhinoplasty after filler injection.  It can also be done at the same time.  The results of one procedure should not affect the other.  Good luck!

Toby Mayer, MD · Answer

Rhinoplasty and cheek fillers done together. Yes these can be done together by an experienced injector and rhinoplasty surgeon. One will not affect the other if properly done.

Johnson C. Lee, MD · Answer

The fillers should not be int he area of the rhinoplasty surgery and therefore you should be fine. You should still wait until the swelling has subsided from the fillers before undergoing the rhinoplasty surgery. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee, MD

Hi. It is not a problem to do rhinoplasty and under eye or cheek fillers at the same time. For a more permanent filling option, you may want to talk with your surgeon about the potential benefits of fat transfer vs. filler. All the best.

John S. Alspaugh, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question. Patients often choose to combine cosmetic surgery and dermal fillers to get the results they desire, and there is no apparent reason that you could not have a rhinoplasty following the use of fillers. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your overall goals and determine what course of treatment (or combination of treatments) will help you reach those goals.

Geoffrey W. Tobias, MD, FACS · Answer

Absolutely as long as there is not too much swelling from the filler treatment. The profile contour of the nose can be judged because swelling from the filler should not affect the assessment of how much of bump should be removed during the rhinoplasty.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

yes, it is possible to undergo a rhinoplasty after you've had cheek and under eye fillers. The rhinoplasty procedure will not have any effect on fillers placed in the cheeks or eyelids. For more information, please see link and the video below

Fillers in those areas should not be a problem with having a rhinoplasty. They can be done at the same time or separately.Following
the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you
exactly what to do  without
examining you, physically feeling the
tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and
discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your
best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon with extensive nasal
surgery experience who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
(ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon (otolaryngologist) that you trust and are
comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Additional
information about the procedure will help you decide if it is a procedure that
you want to pursue.
