How long does the Shanghai mandibular angle bone grinding surgery need to recover?
Shanghai is one of the most popular areas for cosmetic and plastic surgery in China and even in the world. Many people come to Shanghai for mandibular angle grinding surgery to improve the facial contour. However, the recovery period after surgery may vary from person to person. This article will elaborate on the recovery of mandibular angle grinding surgery in Shanghai from four aspects.
Recovery in the first week after operation
The mandibular angle grinding operation usually needs to be carried out under general anesthesia, and the operation time generally lasts for 1-2 hours. The first week after the operation will be a critical period for recovery. In the days after the operation, the patient may experience swelling, pain and local congestion. Doctors usually advise patients to wear ice bags to reduce swelling and prescribe corresponding analgesics to relieve pain. During this period, patients should pay attention to diet, rest, and avoid strenuous exercise and stimulating food.
About one week after the operation, the patient can go to the hospital for further consultation. The doctor will check the wound to ensure that it is free of infection and give further guidance. The patient may need to wear an orthotic device to stabilize the position of the mandible, and carry out daily care as recommended by the doctor.
In general, the recovery period in the first week after surgery is relatively short, but patients need to be nursed in strict accordance with the doctor's recommendations to avoid complications.
Postoperative recovery progress
In the second week after surgery and in the following months, the patient's facial recovery progress will gradually accelerate. The symptoms of swelling and pain will gradually reduce, and local congestion will also gradually subside. The patient may feel his face becomes more relaxed, but he needs to avoid excessive exercise and strenuous activity to avoid affecting the wound healing.
At this stage, patients need to continue to wear orthotics, and follow the doctor's recommendations for regular follow-up. The doctor may give the patient some instructions on facial muscle exercise to help the facial muscles restore vitality and strength.
The progress of recovery after surgery usually lasts for several months. Patients need to wait patiently and follow the doctor's advice to live and eat normally.
Long term recovery after surgery
Long term recovery after surgery refers to the recovery process between three months and one year after surgery. During this period, the patient's mandibular angle will gradually heal, and the facial contour will gradually recover to the expected effect. The doctor will visit again regularly to track the recovery of patients and make adjustments as needed.
In the long-term recovery stage after surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's advice to continue wearing orthotics and facial muscle exercises. Patients should also avoid face impact or external force stimulation, so as not to affect the surgical effect.
The long-term recovery period after surgery varies from person to person, and the specific recovery time will vary due to individual differences and surgical complexity. Generally speaking, the patient will gradually recover to a good state within one year after the operation.
