Why Patients Might Consider Face Surgery
There are multiple reasons why patients might consider undergoing these procedures such as:
- Addressing skin with a loss of elasticity
- Reducing wrinkles and fine lines at the level of the face
- Improved aspect of the face
- Altering the contour of the face and neck
- Altering the contours of the eye area
- Changing the proportions of the nose and ears
Recovery after Face Surgery
If you consider getting plastic face surgery then you might be wondering about the recovery period too. Recovery after face surgery is an important part of the process, and you should plan it accordingly. During the recovery period, you will be advised to take time off from work and your usual activities to allow your body to heal and rest. At the same time, you will get a list of recommendations that you should follow to the letter.
The recommendations for after-surgery care are different from one procedure to the other. However, there are certain things that stay the same for all procedures. Here are some of them:
- Don’t smoke for at least two to three weeks after the surgery is performed, as this can lead to unwanted complications such as wound dehiscence and even skin necrosis
- Don’t take medication unless it was discussed with Dr Hunt in advance
- Focus on a healthy and balanced diet with plenty of nutrients to help your body heal faster and avoid fast foods
- Avoid strenuous physical activities during the first few days post-op as they might cause the rupture of the incisions or bleeding
- Make sure to keep the incisions site clean and dry at all times
- Sleep with your head slightly elevated as this could help reduce the swelling that naturally occurs after surgery
