What is the recovery time for a flick lift? (Photo)

Biggiej123
I am 39 years old but already have jowls. I have consulted with a qualified and respected plastic surgeon who advises that the best option would be what is known as a flick lift under local anaesthetic. The procedure will take about 3 hours. I questioned whether this would address the smas layer as well as skin and it does. I just really wanted to hear some reviews and hear about recovery time but I'm unable to find anything under this name. Any further information would be appreciated
