How Much Does a Patient See Bruising/Swelling Worry Around Radiofrequency Skin Tightening with Liposuction of the Neck?

BethNewYork
I am in my mid fifties and had a facelift about 5 years ago. My doctor says he sees sagging around the neck area (not too pronounced though) and suggested the above outpatient procedure. My big worry is that I will be so bruised and swollen that makeup and turtlenecks will not be able to cover. Is this concern warranted? I have a busy professional as well as an active social life and I cannot afford to lose months due to terrible bruising.
