Hello, it's Hana. I had a minor cosmetic procedure in Seoul last week, and I experienced more swelling and bruising than I expected... 💦
Today is day 4, and I still feel a bit puffy. I heard that icing is sufficient for the first 48 hours, but I'm unsure about the best way to care for it afterward. Should I apply heat, or is it better to just wait and see? I'd also love to know if there are any effective care methods for the bruising.
Are there any precautions I should take in my daily life? For now, I'm avoiding alcohol and strenuous exercise, but I'm wondering if things like sleeping posture or diet can help reduce swelling... If anyone has gone through this before, I'd be happy to hear about your everyday tips and tricks 😊

I've experienced something similar before. Around four to five days, I still felt a bit of swelling. What I did was try to sleep with my head elevated and eat less salty food, which seemed to help quite a bit 😊 As for the bruising, it will gradually fade with time. I've heard that taking some Vitamin C is also good, but it's best to consult your medical team for advice!
