It really wasn't bad at all...the pain. The worst part for me was my sensitivity to pain meds. I thought the pain would be severe at first so I took the prescribed Percocet, but it made me nauseous and throw up. THAT was the worst! The throwing up put pressure on my sutures, of course, and I figured I could try going without the pain meds. I found I really didn't need anything more than Tylenol for a couple of days. There was quite a bit of swelling, but to be honest, I was out to dinner with friends 10 days postop!! It was really about 3-6 months before I had total feeling back in my forehead (brow lift) and neck, but it was nothing that was miserable at all. I was more and more excited every day with the results. In fact, I'm scheduled with Dr. Krau this morning for breast augmentation surgery! I LOVE him and his work so much....HIGHLY recommend! Good Luck, Jen :)
