Should I have a septorhinoplasty before or after lip repositioning surgery?

billiebob1234
Hello, I am going to have a septorhinoplasty done next year, and I am also considering lip repositioning surgery with my periodontist for my gummy smile (not due to depressor septi ligament). I wondering if there is a particular order I should have these procedures done in? I would like to have the lip repositioning done first, but I also heard that rhinoplasty can affect your upper lip and I don't want it to look too droopy. Thanks!
