Ear Surgery
Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, is the surgical altering of the ears. This is often done to correct issues like cupped ears, protruding ears, and lop ears. One of the most common forms of otoplasty is called ear pinning. Ear pinning is often done at a young age to correct protruding ears, but it can be performed at any age. Otoplasty is a great surgery to combine with rhinoplasty for a more dramatic change in facial balance.
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic surgery performed on the eyelids. It is normally used to remove loose or sagging skin from the eyelid. However, it can also be used to correct eyelid drooping from things like weak facial muscles. Blepharoplasty is a fantastic procedure to combine with rhinoplasty to make more dramatic changes to the center of your face.
Chin Surgery
Chin surgery is designed to achieve different results like chin reduction, chin re-shaping, reduction of chin fat, and chin augmentation. Chin surgery is often used to correct asymmetry issues with the chin. Combing rhinoplasty with chin surgery can help enhance the midline of your face and create better facial symmetry.
Should I Combine Cosmetic Surgeries?
