A nose job and double eyelid surgery are currently two of the most popular cosmetic procedures, especially because they target central facial features that significantly enhance appearance. However, many clients struggle to decide which procedure to have first and which one afterward.
In reality, the order of procedures can greatly influence the overall outcome. To help clients understand more clearly, below is a detailed analysis and professional recommendation from Keangnam Korea Aesthetic Clinic. Let’s explore together!

Why Not Do Both Nose Job and Eyelid Surgery at the Same Time?
Theoretically, it’s possible to perform both a nose job and eyelid surgery simultaneously. In fact, doing both in one session can offer benefits such as saving time, optimizing total cost, making postoperative care more convenient, and shortening overall recovery time.
However, this combined approach is not recommended by many surgeons because:
- Increased physical strain on the patient: The larger area of surgical impact may result in broader swelling and more discomfort, requiring more careful and meticulous care afterward.
- Difficulty achieving facial balance: Adjusting both the nose and eyelids at once makes it harder to determine the ideal proportions, as the shape of the nose can influence how the eyes should ultimately look, and vice versa. This requires extremely high surgical precision to ensure harmony in a single operation.
Therefore, to achieve both ideal aesthetics and overall safety, Keangnam Korea typically recommends separating the procedures and addressing them one at a time. The following section explains how to determine the best sequence.
Advantages of Getting a Nose Job First
A nose job involves dissection and reshaping of the nasal structure, including placement of cartilage or implants to create a more refined nose shape. This technique is typically more complex and generally requires a longer recovery period than eyelid surgery.
Because of this, choosing to do the nose job first provides a stable foundation for the rest of your facial adjustments, helping to establish a balanced base for future procedures.
In addition, changes to the nose shape can also subtly influence surrounding facial areas, including the eye region. For example, a higher or more refined nasal bridge may visually lengthen the distance between the eyes and make the eyes appear deeper or more proportionate, contributing to a more harmonious face overall.

This means that when it’s time for double eyelid surgery, the surgeon will only need to make necessary adjustments based on the now more balanced facial architecture, potentially reducing the need for extensive modifications around the eye corners. In turn, this can reduce surgical stress and support a faster healing process.
Advantages of Having Double Eyelid Surgery First
Double eyelid surgery primarily removes excess skin, soft tissue, and fat around the eyelids to create a defined crease, making the eyes appear larger and more expressive.
Experts often recommend performing eyelid surgery first when the eyelid condition is severe, such as significant sagging or drooping, or when trauma has compromised the eyelid and needs priority treatment to prevent visual impairment.
Interestingly, about 70% of clients who choose to have double eyelid surgery report that they no longer feel the need to undergo a nose job afterward — they already feel that their nose looks appropriate for their face. Even if they do choose additional nasal procedures later, it is often limited to minor refinements such as tip or wing adjustments, without affecting eyelid surgery results.
Another advantage of addressing the area with greater imperfection first is that it allows the surgeon to more accurately evaluate proportions and recommend the most appropriate steps. On a face that has already been partially balanced, the surgeon can better determine the optimal nasal shape to match the eye results.

So Should You Get Double Eyelid Surgery First or a Nose Job First?
From the discussion above, in most cases, patients are advised to consider a nose job first, followed by double eyelid surgery, except in specific circumstances where a specialist recommends otherwise. Having a refined nose as the foundation often results in a more harmonious and balanced facial profile.
When the nose is reshaped first, nearby skin around the eyes may be stretched slightly, giving the surgeon a clearer idea of how much excess skin should be removed during eyelid surgery without negatively affecting the results of the nose job.
Conversely, some patients who undergo eyelid surgery first followed by a nose job may experience subtle shifts in eye position or spacing due to postoperative swelling during the nose job, making it difficult for the surgeon to immediately adjust eyelid balance.
Ultimately, to determine the best sequence for your unique facial structure and goals, Keangnam Korea encourages clients to schedule an in-person consultation with a specialist. This allows for deeper professional evaluation and helps avoid unintended outcomes later.
