After plastic surgery, we receive a lot of questions about swelling.
This is actually one of the things people are most curious about.
Especially, many people wonder whether the swelling is part of the surgical result
or just a temporary condition.
Every time you look in the mirror after surgery,
you may think, 'Is this really the final result?'
Of course, in most cases,
we watch the swelling for about a month after surgery.
But even after a month,
swelling often remains.
In fact, it is also difficult to say exactly
how much swelling is still left.
But if you want one tip for telling whether swelling is still present
and how much more may go down in the future,
The most reliable way to distinguish swelling from the actual surgical result
is to 'consistently check your appearance.'
People are generally
most swollen right after waking up,
and least swollen
right before going to sleep.
Compare the difference in swelling
between morning and evening!
If the swelling in the evening
is much less than in the morning,
that is a sign that there is still more swelling to go down.
Ultimately,
it means there is a high chance
that the appearance will become similar to the evening look.
If the swelling has gone down a lot in the evening,
there is a very high chance that the final appearance
will be close to that look.
Just as air slowly escapes from a balloon,
the swelling will also gradually subside naturally.
Even after a month,
swelling may remain,
so please do not rush.
Compare the difference in swelling
between morning and evening! 😃
