Should I get rhinoplasty and chin implant at same time?

Hello! Thank you for your question.You can have both surgery at one time. It is not necessary but this way you just take the anesthesia one time. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best Regards!

Hi @Dazzling4768! I am a facial plastic surgeon located in Beverly Hills, CA. I usually perform them on the same day in the operating room. I start off with the chin implant which takes about an hour then I proceed with the rhinoplasty. The chin implant can also be performed in office under local anesthesia. I hope this was helpful!

Chin implants and rhinoplasty are procedures that are commonly done together. Both are typically outpatient procedures and you are correct that having both procedures will naturally balance out the face. Combining the two procedures will allow you to combine the down times as well as allow the edema to subside in both at the same time. This last point is important as both chin implants and rhinoplasty can have extended periods of swelling. Most facial aesthetic surgeons should be comfortable combining the two procedures.

This is for patient convenience, and chin implant surgery is a relatively fast procedure that may be performed at the commencement of surgery, right before rhinoplasty. Nasal reduction with chin augmentation may lead to drastic facial profile improvement. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Hello,Thank you for the question… As a surgeon, my number one priority is the safety and comfort of my patients when it comes to their procedures. With that being said there is no correct order for the procedures you would like. There is no harm in getting both rhinoplasty and chin implant at the same time or having them done at separate times.Best Regards,DR CBS
