Can you do alarplasty/rhinoplasty and upper lip lift together? What if performed by different surgeons but same day? Or how long to wait after rhinoplasty before lip lift. Or how long to wait after lip lift before doing rhinoplasty? Thanks
Answer: Recommendation Hello, Usually, nose surgery that you mention uses incision on the columella and alar area, and lip lift uses incision on the top of the philtrum. These two incision areas are too close. This complicates the suturing process for the surgeon. Also, it will not be the best idea when we consider the healing process after surgery including the blood circulation. It is recommended to do the higher priority first and have several months interval. For more accurate plans, you should have in-person consultation with a surgeon.
