Can you have rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty at the same time? The one doctor I consulted with wouldn't do it.

The 2 surgeries you are considering can easily be accomplished at the same time.  It is safe to do and it will allow you to have a single recovery and will decrease your cost by avoiding a second anesthesia.  While there may be slightly more swelling due to 2 operations close to each other, if post operative instructions are followed, the swelling is minor and short lived.  See a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation as to what would be best in your case.

Hello,We routinely do blepharoplasty and rhinoplasty simultaneously. In fact, I commonly have people who also have many other procedures at the same time and they can all be done safely together.We do these procedures commonly in a surgical center, though they can even be done in the office at times.Best regardsJeffrey Spiegel

Yes. If you are healthy enough to tolerate 2-2 1/2 hours of anesthesia then these procedures can be performed together. It is possible that your surgeon does not perform both eyelid and nasal procedures. In most cases, a facial specialist should be well versed in both rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery.
