Surgery with Dr. Arnett

#1 Post by lillysmith1122 »

Hi, I'm having surgery with Dr. Arnett a year from now...I want to know if anyone here knows if you can have a rhinoplasty at the same time of your surgery? Im having my top and bottom jaws moved forward and the top jaw re-shaped, thicken my top lip, and a cheek augumentation on my right cheek all to fix my facial asymmetry (my right side looks completely different than my left side)..
Anyone get a nose job with their oral surgery?Thnks!!! :)

I didn't get a nose job, but I know Dr. Arnett/Gunson will do one if necessary and you want to pay for an extra cost. If they think it will help your overall aesthetic appearance, they might suggest it.

I was wondering this as well. I know jaw surgery can change the slope and sometimes shape of your nose.

Asmileconnectsus: How much of a change was it? What did your nose look like before?
