Hello My PS has recommended I do my extended deep plane neck and face lift with upper blepharosplasty lip lift with corner lift in one operation and 10 days later go in and do my revision rhinoplasty with forehead and brow lift he advised that to do all procedures in one would mean quite some hours under anaesthetic and would prefer splitting between 2 operations. My question is would the second operation effect the results ofthe 1st and is 10 days enough between the 2 ? Thank You for your time
Answer: Facelift It’s a perfectly good plan. You don’t want your surgeon doing more at one time than they are comfortable with and at 10 days you really shouldn’t have much swelling and bruising. Every surgeon does things differently. Your surgeons plan is reasonable

Answer: Facelift In my practice, I usually allow at least 2 months between two surgeries unless it is urgent and I say that this will be healthier for the patient.

Answer: Two Surgical Dates If your Surgeon feels that the operative time will be excessive, it's completely appropriate to split up the surgical dates. Although I would prefer at least two weeks between anesthetic events, 10 days isn't out of the question for a healthy, active patient. I prefer to do revision rhinoplasty by itself and not along with other facial rejuvenation procedures. As long as you follow instructions, eat a healthy diet, and maintain a positive attitude, the 1st procedure and 2nd procedure should not affect each other.

Answer: Should be fine This shouldn't be an issue. Personally, I would do the facial rejuvenation procedures all at once, (deep plane facelift, upper bleph, lip lift, browlift, 6-7 hours), then revision rhinoplasty 10 days later.

Answer: Staged Surgery Hello, hope you are well. I think you can give your surgeon the benefit of the doubt and trust their experience and way of doing things. Having said that, if they are concerned about having enough time in one day under general anesthesia, the upper blepharoplasty and lip lift could also be done under local anesthesia at a later time. If the surgeries really need to be broken up, a deep plane facelift, revision rhinoplasty, and forehead/brow lift could be done in the first stage under general anesthesia, followed by lip lift and upper bleph under local anesthesia at a later date. Usually an upper blepharoplasty is done after a brow lift because the amount of skin that would be excised will likely change. Hope this helps.
