Before undergoing face lift surgery, it is a good idea to get some ideas on what you will have to deal with during your recovery period. Here are some thoughts to keep in mind as you prepare for the days immediately following your face lift surgery.

First, be prepared to wear bandages for a time. Depending on what all was involved in the surgery, you may need to leave the bandages in place for a few days. Get used to the fact that during this period, you will not be able to touch your face. The first feel of fresh air on your new face when the bandages come off will be well worth the wait.

Next, expect some swelling and pain. Face lift surgery will also come with some bruising as well. All of this will be the most intense during the first few days after the face lift surgery, then begin to fade out. Some people experience relatively little pain, while others fine the level of discomfort to be very high at first. You will have prescriptions for medication that include pain killers at your disposal if you need them.

Last, patience is a virtue you will either practice well or learn all about during those first several days after the face lift surgery. You may find it a little more difficult to mover your eyes without pain, owing to the swelling. The same is true with speaking or chewing. This means you may need to limit your talking and get to be very happy with soft foods that require little or no chewing during this time. Take all of this in stride and remember that the situation is only temporary. Once you have gone through this recovery period, you will find that the fresh look of your face was well worth the effort.
