Posted under Lower Facelift q&a

I am going to have a neck lift and lower facelift. How long should I wear the compression bandage? (photos)

I have seen two school's of thought about the length of time to wear the compression bandage after a neck lift. My skin is 66 1/2 years old. Obviously, I want the best outcome I can get, so why do some surgeons require the compression bandage to be worn longer than other surgeons?
