Would It Be Safe to Get a Tattoo on Arm Before Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty?

Although this is generally safe, I’d recommend waiting until after you’re healed from your surgery to avoid putting additional stress on your immune system and to promote good healing of both the new tattoo area and your rhinoplasty surgery.

They are distant sites, so there should be no problem having both of those procedures near each other.

It is certainly acceptable to undergo a tattoo prior to any type of nasal surgery.  There are no contraindications having both procedures performed.
