What is the best type of pillow/way to sleep for anti-aging?

jelllyb
I was told to use a wedge pillow after my face lift. I’m assuming that was just to avoid swelling. Though is it better than other types of pillows in general? And what are your thoughts on back/side/stomach sleeping? Neck rolls? Travel pillows? The surgery was brutal (still recovering!) & I want to protect my investment! Thanks so much!
