I have only a narrow window in work schedule to have a rhinoplasty, so I wonder when should I have a consultation to book a surgery for June ? (how far in advance) For computer imaging prior to surgery, would it matter if I had fillers under my eyes (restylane and perlane) and in my cheeks ? I get them about ~ 3 months.

Answer: Scheduling a consultation
Even if it is several months away, you should schedule your consultation as soon as possible to ensure that you can have your surgery during the timeframe that works with your schedule. Fillers around your eyes will not affect the computer imaging for your nose. However, if you have had fillers in your nose, it may affect your evaluation.
Good Luck.

Answer: Best Time to Schedule Rhinoplasty
Hi SF,
Once you have chosen your rhinoplasty surgeon most carefully, you should have your consultation(s) as soon as possible. You will be seeing your rhinoplasty surgeon again within the week of your surgery for your pre-op appointment. Fillers should not affect your rhinoplasty as long as they are not being placed in your nose. Good luck and be well.

Answer: Timing to book a consultation for surgery
I always encourage my patients to have the initial consultation as soon as feasible even if they are not contemplating surgery until the future. This affords plenty of time to answer questions and to arrange their schedule accordingly not just for the surgery but for the after care that may be involved as well as the "down" time. I hope this information helps.
