Closed rhinoplasty with rib cartilage before pregnancy?

sapulettemMay 16, 2022
Dear doctors, I would like your advice. I am 35 years old and in 3 months time I am going to undergo a closed rhinoplasty with rib cartilage. I was planning to have children at the end of this year, beginning of next year. Would you advise me against continuing with my rhinoplasty? How long should I wait after my rhinoplasty to get pregnant? Thanks in advance!
