How long do I have to wait after rhinoplasty to get temporal Brow Lift?

Question

I had primary rhinoplasty and I would like to get a lateral brow lift (temporal brow lift ) how long do I need to wait ?

Thank you for your question. While swelling can be present for up to one year following a rhinoplasty procedure, approximately 80% is dissipated after the first 3-4 months. Waiting to see the most accurate results of your rhinoplasty procedure before undergoing a brow lift would be ideal.  
I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to oversee your rhinoplasty recovery process, assess your medical history, and help you decide on the best time to proceed with a brow lift.

Hi! Rhinoplasty healing after first-time surgery can take upwards of 6-12 months. I often recommend separating procedures by at least 3-6 months. This allows the face time to heal and ensure optimal results after surgery. The longer you can wait, the better in my opinion. I hope this helps you!

Nasal surgery should not interfere with timing of temporal brow lift. We can usually perform both procedures at the same time. If you are in your 40's , you may be a good candidate for a temporal brow lift, but we would need to see your photos
