Would I benefit from a lip lift along with my rhinoplasty? I would like to achieve facial harmony

Rational266175Jan 5, 2023
My philtrum is around 17 to 20mm, it's hard to measure. Do I need a lip lift too? facial harmony is important to me. I've been told some contradictory things. One surgeon told me I could have a lip lift with rhinoplasty the other said i couldnt as I'll have to have wing surgery (basplasty ?) Is it true i cant have a lip lift if I need surgery to my wings? Also i do have gum show when i laugh hard. Pics included When i photoshop both i look insane but i think im just bad at it

Yes, rhinoplasty may temporarily or permanently change your smile. You usually have to wait at least 6 months to see some improvement in the smile or even up to 18 months. Sometimes this may unfortunately be a permanent change.
