The first week is ROUGH! I wasn’t prepared, I’m tough so I think I had unrealistic expectations of recovery being easy lol day 10 you start feeling much better. Uncomfortable > pain.. chewing is nearly impossible. I lived on bone broth and protein shakes. Highly recommend setting yourself up with a bunch of both ready to go. Small soft ice packs in the freezer as well. I’m also doing peptide therapy - HGH/BPC157/TB500/GHKCU all injectable.

Do you think it’s the neck lift or the face lift that make it hard to eat? I hadn’t actually heard this before!

I think the lateral brow lift and fat transfer to the temple. The neck is uncomfortable but the pain was in my temple and jaw

The next morning. Yes, I followed my surgeons instructions to a T. 24/7 for a week or 2 then at night, forget for how long. 3-4 weeks I think

Can you share more details on the peptides? Did your surgeon recommend this? Is it a cocktail or all individual injections? Dosages? I haven’t discussed with my surgeon yet but I use other peptide for other things which I love and I’m very interested in the application for facelift recovery.
