What are the skin changes like after a facelift?

I have a question for those considering a facelift. I am curious about the actual skin changes after the surgery. In particular, I would like to know what effects were observed regarding skin elasticity and pigmentation changes, as well as the reactions from those around you. I would also appreciate it if you could share information on the level of pain and swelling, and the necessary care methods during the recovery process. I would like to hear various opinions regarding the changes that can be expected after the surgery.
