Hi everyone! I'm Yun. I just finished a small procedure and I'm experiencing some swelling and bruising, which has me a little worried. I wanted to ask how everyone else takes care of themselves post-procedure. I've heard that cold compresses and elevation are important, but I'm still a bit unsure about the specifics.
It's only the second day of recovery, and my face is still quite swollen. I'm using cold compresses, but I'm not sure how long is best to continue. What about diet? Some people say to avoid spicy and salty foods, but I'm not sure if that really helps. I'm looking for experienced sisters to share your recovery process!
Also, I wanted to ask how long swelling and bruising typically take to subside. I know everyone's situation is different, but I'd love to hear about your real experiences. Are there any little tips or precautions I should know? Thanks everyone, I'm looking forward to hearing your advice!

Reading your story, I understand. I'm also thinking of doing the same thing, so your opinion is very helpful. From what I've read on this forum, it seems most people prioritize getting plenty of rest and avoiding risky foods. I'm eagerly waiting to see how it turns out!
Hi Yoon, have you tried drinking more water or eating anything special to reduce swelling? I heard some friends drink collagen or something, but I'm not sure if it actually helps.
It was a pleasure reading your story! I'm curious about what skincare products you're currently using. I'm concerned that some creams or serums might irritate the skin after treatment 😅
