In order to reduce the edema that may occur after the operation, an elastic bandage is applied to the head and face area. Also, the day after the procedure bandage is replaced with a new elastic bandage winding. Your surgeon will share with you the need to use this bandage for a few days. In addition, the bandage must be used at night for 7 days after the operation. This technique is used only for the first few days to avoid edema.
A cold compress can be useful after forehead stretching. For excessive pain, redness, or different complications, you must be contacted by the doctor. The sutments in the forehead area are removed at the end of 1 week.
Finally, there should be no exhausting activity for up to 3 weeks after the operation. After a 1-week process, after the forehead lift operation, a shower can be taken. However, hot water should not be preferred when taking a shower.
Although it is also an operation, the surgeon’s recommendations must be obeyed during the recovery period. The formation of bruises and swelling after surgery is normal. However, you should also consult your doctor in cases that may cause prolonged pain.
The forehead should not fit on the face after stretching surgery and the head should not bend forward. In addition, all activities that will cause the stitches to be forced should be avoided. You can successfully complete the recovery period by paying attention to the recommendations of the aesthetic surgeon.
Sometimes side effects can also be seen in the eye area and cheeks. In fact, in addition to the adverse effects that must be met normally, the experience of sinking in the first days should not disturb the patient. In addition, since the sutments applied to the incision areas will be taken after 1 week, the general side effects would also be eliminated at the end of this process.
