Toby G. Mayer, MD answers: How much swelling and bruising will I get from neck liposuction and lift?

I am scheduled for Neck lipo and Neck lift next week. How much swelling and brusing should I expect? How long will they last?

It should not be much with liposuction. It depends on what type of necklift you are having as to the amount of swelling and bruising. The more extensive the lift, the more swelling and bruising you will have. Most patients can go to a party 2 weeks later without visible signs of surgery.
