I would like a (mini?) face lift and rhinoplasty - preferably done at the same time, but have an anesthesia question.

Asked By:Ian50 in Independence, Kansas

I hear (slightly?) better results are obtainable for a facelift under local anesthetic, but rhinoplasty requires general. For these two procedures to be done in one surgery, is it possible to begin with a local for the face, and then have a general for the rhino as the second part of the surgery? Thanks!
