After a facelift, the overall recovery process is obvious swelling for about three days, and after three days, the bandage is opened and replaced with a head covering, and the stitches are usually removed in about 5 to 7 days, while in the scalp, the stitches are usually removed in 8 to 10 days, depending on the wound healing situation, and the doctor will decide the appropriate time to remove the stitches after examination. When can I wash my face after a facelift? It is possible to take water to clean the area without surgery. As soon as the bandage is opened, you can wash your face, but be careful not to wet the wound with water. If you accidentally touch the water, you can take iodophor and wipe it. If your hair is particularly itchy or uncomfortable after surgery, you can wash your hair after opening the bandage. However, it is best to go to a shampoo store and have the staff help you. After washing, blow dry the wound promptly, clean and disinfect it as quickly as possible, and then apply a little disinfectant medicine for preventive protection. Do not take a bath here, the hair will be wet for a long time in a humid environment, there is a high risk of wound infection. With regard to perming and coloring, it is usually a month before you consider these issues. Some friends in particular will experience hair loss after surgery. There is no need to worry excessively about this situation, it is usually due to the re-establishment of blood circulation in the scalp, and then there is a little hair loss, which usually gets better after a month. For when you can swim, it is also a month later, early after facelift surgery is not recommended to carry out a large exercise, because the wound needs three weeks to grow well, a large exercise should be put into a month later, if it is general stretching and so on, as long as wearing a head cover generally does not matter much. Of course, if you perform a handstand a few days after surgery, blood pouring into the face, that is certainly not possible.
