How long after a labiaplasty surgery can you get rhinoplasty?

Question

I'll be getting labiaplasty through local anesthesia soon but would also like to schedule a rhinoplasty. How long do I need to wait before getting a rhinoplasty? Would going under general anesthesis for the rhinoplasty affect the healing of the labiaplasty?

Caner Kacmaz, MD · Answer

We recommend waiting 6 to 12 weeks between surgeries when they are both performed under general anestesia. However, in your case since your initial surgery is under local anesthesia, you do not have to wait between surgeries. Local anesthesia wears off in 4-6 hours after the procedure.  
Receiving general anesthesia will not affect the results or the healing of your labiaplasty procedure.

John Michael Thomassen, MD · Answer

Ideally you could do both under general anesthesia at the same time.  The general anesthesia and rhinoplasty should not affect healing significantly so you could schedule it soon after.

There is no reason to delay your Rhinoplasty after a Labiaplasty.
The two operations could even be performed "at the same time", or at the same hospital visit.

Rhinoplasty after labia plasty: A labia plasty performed under local anesthesia should have virtually no impact on a Rhinoplasty with general anesthesia. I see no reason to delay scheduling of the rhinoplasty due to the small local procedure.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

Since you're having the labia plasty under local anesthesia, you can undergo a rhinoplasty under general anesthesia at any time once you feel comfortable enough. Rhinoplasty is one of the most difficult procedures to perform correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery, so choose your surgeon very wisely, based on extensive experience producing natural results. Digital computer imaging would also be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with your nose upon your facial features.

There’s really no need for any specific amount of time between the two procedures. I suggest you talk to both of your providers to make sure everybody’s on the same page.
