Answer: Will icing help 4 days after a facelift? The swelling around the face peaks around day 3 after a facelift. In my practice, I have found that icing during the first 7 days after surgery is beneficial. So I think that the answer is yes, it may help you.Make sure to do so as directed by your surgeon (there are correct and incorrect ways to ice the face).

Answer: Application of ice to the face days after a facelift. Ice will favorably influence swelling only if it is placed immediately after the operation. After four days it will have no therapeutic effect. Make certain that you don't inadvertently freeze your skin as it may be temporarily insensitive after the facelift.

Answer: Ice after Facelift Thank you for your question. I would not put ice directly on any area that was operated on. A cool compress may be a better option for comfort. The reason for this is that direct ice can reduce the bloodflow to the operated tissues. Also, the tissue could actually freeze, without your knowledge, because the sensation in this area is diminished.Be sure to consult with your surgeon for their preference, as well. I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Answer: Ice after surgery I personally do not like ice to be used post op. Cooling yes. Ice no. Why? Because you have decreased sensation over the flaps that were elevated on your face. Ice can lead to freezing of the tissue and you won't even feel it. The frozen tissue has no blood supply and then dies. I have seen this and it is not pretty. Instead, soak gauze in ice water and then apply to the swollen areas. The heat of your body will warm the cold water enough so it can't freeze your tissue, yet allow enough colling to be beneficial.Dr. J
