Tips for care after facelift

  • Depending on the type of facelift you opt for you might have to deal with swelling on the face. Swelling is one of the most natural reactions to an injury no matter how minor it might be. This is also a method of repairing the wound. In most cases, the swelling will be near the jawline and will be more apparent the next morning.
  • Discolouration of the skin is another natural body reaction and the body's attempt to heal itself. The discolouration might be visible a few days after the surgery and will remain so for a week or two after attempting to heal your skin. This tends to occur in the neck jawline.
  • The skin sutures and minor wounds after this cosmetic surgery are very sensitive. They can be aggravated by sudden head movements or too much head movement. Thus, it is best to avoid head movement after a facelift.
  • It is not uncommon to feel pain after this cosmetic surgery; especially if the surgeon has administered anesthesia. In most cases, you will feel the pain at night or when you are stressed. The best method to deal with this type of pain is to use a pain reliever and cold compress.
  • Your face might seem quite a bad post-facelift. You might have a few cuts and bruises besides which they will be sold in certain places after a while. It is important to be patient with these symptoms and deal with them using proper medication and treatment.
  • Use an ice bag with a clean towel on your face and jaws to ease the swelling and provide comfort to your skin.
  • It is likely that those with high blood pressure have bigger side effects. Hence, it is best to monitor your condition if you happen to suffer from hypertension.
  • Avoid removing the bandages which are likely to be tight; instead, allow them to come loose naturally after a day or two.
  • Take plenty of rest for the first 12 hours after your treatment and also take the medication that has been prescribed.
  • Avoid bending over or lifting anything heavy as well as too much exposure to sunlight.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months.

Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
