Answer: First night of recovery following a facelift The headache is usually due to a tight head wrap and post general anesthesia. Many patients have insomnia the first night following facelift with general anesthesia. We recommend sleeping pills to help patients to sleep. I perform facelift with local anesthesia and twilight sedation. Patients experience minimal discomfort or complication associated with general anesthesia.

Answer: Headache after facelift Yes, this very well can be normal after anesthesia and a facelift. The head wrap maybe a little tight and some people after anesthesia have headaches. However if the pain is getting worst or you just want some reassurance the best thing to do is to contact your plastic surgeon directly. Hope this helps

Answer: Headache and insomnia post facelift These are not unusual symptoms, especially if a brow lift was performed with the face lift. If a head dressing was used, it may be too tight. If drains were used, they tend to make sleeping uncomfortable until they are removed. You should contact your surgeon to discuss your concerns.
