Would it be recommended to do rhinoplasty before eye surgery, or does it matter?

Question

I plan to do both but not at the same time.I wish to do eye surgery, rhinoplasty and neck lift (eventually). I probably won't choose to do them all at once, because I want a specialist in each field. A doctor that specializes in that body part. Does it matter which order I get these done, for example, should the rhinoplasty be done first? Thank you.

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can understand your question according to me it is the best way to have them in one surgery because anesthesia is not a good thing for your body. Taking 3 times might be hard for your system. However, if you want to do all separatly, there is no order for them. Best Regards!

Hello, hope you are well. Generally speaking, the sequence of your operations does not matter in most cases. Each procedure is contained to it's own area and done for its own unique purpose. By 'eye surgery', I assume you mean blepharoplasty. Seeking a specialist in each procedure is understandable, but many patients appreciate forming a relationship with a surgeon that has expertise in everything you are looking for. There are many benefits, one of them being able to consolidate surgeries to reduce overall recovery time and cost. The approach you describe is a bit like going out for dinner at three restaurants: one for appetizers, one for an entrée, and one for dessert. Good luck!
Best,Dr. Tower

Rhinoplasty and eyelid plasty, in what order? it really doesn’t matter for the final outcome which procedure goes first as long as you leave sufficient healing time between procedures. You are wise to have a specialist in each field perform your surgery, particularly the nose. Surgery of the nose is extremely complex and requires a great deal of experience. surgery of the nose is steadily evolving into a specialty of its own because of this. there are more and more surgeons who are limiting their practice to surgery of the nose. There are however very few who limit their practice to cosmetic eyelid surgery. For the eyes you would probably be fine with someone who specializes in rejuvenative surgery of the face without exclusively limiting his practice to eyelid plasty.

In our practice, we do rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery and necklifts separately or in combination on a routine basis. Look for a facial plastic surgeon who specializes in facial cosmetic surgery. Study their before after Photo Gallery to make sure that it is expensive with lots of results that look natural. You should be able to find a surgeon that can do all three procedures simultaneously under one anesthesia with one recovery period. It does not matter which procedure goes first or last if you going to separate them out in time
