How long after rhinoplasty can I get lip injections?

Thank you for your question.You need to wait until all the swelling has settled before getting lip fillers. check with your plastic surgeon for advice.

The area around the nose following rhinoplasty is often swollen for the first few weeks. This results in a stiff upper lip, an altered smile, etc.  Accordingly, I recommend waiting at least 4 weeks for lip injections to achieve symmetric and optimal results from the filler.

Short Answer: 8 weeks, but ultimately up to your surgeon.After rhinoplasty, there may be a lot of swelling of the upper lip, depending on the surgery. The swelling can rollercoaster up and down over the first few weeks. Also, one side of your lip may calm down before the other side. To enhance your lips, your injector is improving symmetry in addition to adding volume. If there is swelling, the injection becomes much more challenging, since the injector is trying to hit a moving target. While you're healing up from your rhinoplasty, you won't want to be showing off your lips anyway. If you hold off on the lip injection until you've fully recovered from your rhinoplasty, then you can maximize the time to show off both. You should have a follow-up appointment at 8 weeks with your surgeon. Plan on doing the lip injection at that appointment. A safe plan is the best plan. 

Thank you for your question.  The swelling after a major procedure like rhinoplasty definitely varies from patient to patient. I would recommend you wait until at least 3 months post surgery.  However, it is best to ask your board certified plastic surgeon what they recommend for you specifically.  Best of luck in your continued healing!

Lip injections can be done as soon as any and all swelling secondary to the rhinoplasty has resolved.
