Hello Drs, I am considering a mid face lift with a revision rhinoplasty to rejuvenate me- in my late thirties. I hope facial asymmetry can somewhat be addressed by this. I am also tired of fillers which haven't lasted and never really address my naso labial folds. Do you recommend a mid face lift? Would it help my face and nasolabial folds properly and is it a good idea to do at the same time as a revision rhinoplasty? regarding which I have asked another question. Thank you so much!

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty and cheek implants In our practice, we recommend cheek implants when there is cheek asymmetry and patient's desire further augmentation of the mid face. The mid face is tends to age with volumetric loss, which is best treated with volume replacement such as a cheek implant. The mid face does not descend downward with aging process. A revision rhinoplasty can be performed at the same time as cheek implants. For many examples of both procedures, please see the link below

Answer: Combination surgery I think you would be a good candidate for both procedures. You would need an in person consultation to make sure, but there should not be a problem doing both at the same time. you will be very swollen and bruised for longer than if you did each separately. If you have tried fillers and are unhappy, surgical suspension of the midface tissue is a good option. Best of luck
