DAY 1.
Patients usually experience only
minimal discomfort following facelift surgery due to good pain
management, and gentle surgical techniques.
You may apply ice packs to both sides
of the face to help reduce swelling. Do not apply ice packs directly
onto the skin, wrap them in a towel, tea towel etc.
You will have a pressure dressing or
face form support in place for 24hrs and then a lighter support
dressing for a further 24hrs after that.
Generally a semi-upright sleeping
position (2-3 pillows) is preferable for at least the first week.
