After a neck lift lower facelift, why do some doctors recommend keeping the headwrap on for a month or just a day?

I have been talking to other doctors about a neck lift lower facelift and some are telling me the headwrap should be on for a week, a month or only for a day. The doctor that said only keep it on for a day said to ice your face for 2 days and no more head wrap. what is the purpose of the headwrap?
