Tips for caring for swelling and bruising after a minor procedure—anyone have any?

Hi everyone! I just had a minor procedure here and am currently dealing with some significant swelling and bruising. This is my first time doing an aesthetic procedure like this, so I'm a bit unsure about the proper daily care routine. Does anyone have any tips or experience with this?

So far, I've tried drinking lots of water and applying cold compresses, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do to help the recovery process. Does anyone have a specific routine that's worked for them? I'm also curious about how long it usually takes for the swelling to go down—is it normal for it to still be a bit large after the first few days?

Also, I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for gentle yet effective skincare products during this recovery phase? I want to make sure my skin stays well-maintained. I'd really appreciate it if anyone could share their experiences! 🙏
