Is it safe to have liposuction 3 days before a revision rhinoplasty?

Graceful313217Nov 17, 2022

I am having revision rhinoplasty over a year after my primary with my original doctor to correct a small bump on the tip. Its clearly felt but hard to see. I want to get 360 lipo at the same time but no doctor who offers it will operate at the same hospital my revision will happen. Is it safe to have liposuction 3 days before?

Most likely, the problems you are seeing are caused by the current size and position of the two cartilages that form the tip of your nose. Those cartilages can be modified in a second operation.
