Should I have a lip lift or revision rhinoplasty procedure first?

June 5, 2023
Asked By:Creative160723 in Soest, Utrecht, Nederland

Hello doctors, I am having my revision rhinoplasty in March 2024. This doctor does not perform liplifts, so i have to do this with another doctor. I am planning to do the liplift in October 2024 (6 months later). I am just worried my nose will change, because of the liplift. Is this true? Or is it better to do the liplift before the revision rhinoplasty? Kind regards
