Rhinoplasty & septoplasty together or separate for best results?

Hi @Genuine3445. A rhinoplasty and septoplasty are commonly performed at the same time. I would recommend the lip lift after the rhinoplasty.

Best of luck,

Although individual practices may vary, plastic surgeons and otolaryngologists can work together to perform septorhinoplasty in a single stage, with the advantages of having a single episode of anesthesia and limiting costs.
As to whether alar base reduction and lip lift can also be done at the same time will depend entirely upon if your surgeon performs open or closed rhinoplasty and you are both comfortable with the resulting scars.

Hi Genuine3445,Thank you for your question. If possible; Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty should be performed at the same time. (Pros/Advantages: Single anaesthesia-For correction of axis deviation- Graft preperation from septum area etc..) Otherwise, you may not find enough cartilage during rhinoplasty, you may not fix the deviation properly etc...Lip lift&alar plasty, I do not recommend combined surgical treatment due to anatomic changes. 3-4 months interval is ideal, to me.

Thank you for your question. In my practice, we typically perform the two procedures together to address cosmetic and functional concerns simultaneously. This makes recovery less drawn out and provides a beautiful and functional nose. Best of luck!

It is actually best to perform rhinoplasty and septoplasty together because the cartilage of the septum is often used to help support the nose. If the septum is done separately, that cartilage is wasted. I would do the lip lift as a separate procedure after the rhinoplasty has healed. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty specialist for consultation.
