How does everyone deal with minor post-procedure swelling or bruising?

Hello, it's Ayaka. I recently had a small cosmetic procedure done in Seoul, but I experienced more swelling and bruising than I expected... I'd love to get some advice from those who have been through this on how to care for myself after returning to Japan.

I heard that cooling is important right after the procedure, so I've been using cooling sheets and ice packs as much as possible, but honestly, I'm not sure how long I should continue cooling. Also, I know the number of days it takes for swelling to subside varies from person to person, but what was everyone's recovery timeline like?

I'd be grateful if you could share even small tips, such as when it's okay to resume normal activities (like bathing or exercising) and if there were any foods you paid attention to. If you've had a similar procedure, I'd love to hear any tips or recommendations for recovery and how you spent your time!
