Combined surgery: Genioplasty and rhinoplasty is a common combined operation. Speak to you surgeon about your options. There are digital imaging option to see the result prior to surgery. One such product is vectra. You can search online for a doctor who offers this.

Commonly Done.: These procedures are commonly performed together. The nose and chin ( as well as other facial features) should be in “harmony”. See a well experienced board certified plastic or facial plastic surgeon for precise advice. Best wishes.
