Can I Get a Lip Lift Before Rhinoplasty?

May 28, 2013
Asked By:jessie4

I would like to start by getting a lip lift to correct a long upper lip, and see if it corrects my appearance sufficiently. If not, then I would do rhinoplasty as well (for a bulbous tip). Is it ok to do a lip lift and then do an open rhinoplasty (or are the procedures not possible in this order?)
