Can alar base reduction be performed in combination with upper lip lift?

July 12, 2014
Asked By:Lolarose in London, GB

I would really like your professional opinion on combined procedure. Since the incision for both need to be made under the nose, is there a risk of too much lip lift. What are the risks of getting two procedures done at once? Can both be done under local anaesthesia, what would be the lenght of the operation then, and what do I need to be clear about with my surgeon ?
