Should I consider a lift along with rhinoplasty?

May 6, 2020
Asked By:lemoncakes6 in Toronto, ON

Hello, I am getting a rhinoplasty and having my columella shortened. I am worried this will make my upper lip even longer. My philtrum is currently around 14mm. My surgeon says my thin skin will not heal well from lip lift scar. Should I pursue the lip lift elsewhere ? Is my philtrum out of balance ?
