How long do I need to wait to get a tip plasty done after having an alarplasty?

It is ideal to wait 6-12 months before having another procedure to the nose. This allows tip for your body to heal and swelling to subside. Hope this helps.

For a standard alarplasty, the majority of the swelling should subside within the first 3 months. From a blood supply standpoint you could safely undergo a tip plasty almost immediately, though from an aesthetic standpoint I would wait until after the swelling has resolved.

Great question!
I don't think you will find a definitive answer to this question, but my general thoughts would be to wait until things are healed from that procedure before proceeding with a rhinoplasty (around 3-4 months). I think the biggest reason I would wait is to see what how that initial procedure changes the overall balance of your nose and the rest of your face before deciding on exact changes to the tip of the nose.
Hope this helps and best of luck! Kyle Kimura, MD
