Approximately 95% of patients will get immediate pain reduction. All preoperative pain medications must be continued. The physician who started them will gradually reduce them after one month. After 10 to 14 days, the staples/sutures are removed. Muffled hearing on the surgical side, facial numbness, anaesthetic weariness, nausea/vomiting in the hospital (meds will be provided) are all common side effects that normally resolve with time. You won’t be able to drive or return to work for roughly a month. For the next six months, you are not allowed to wear wigs, use hair dye, or use any other harsh products. These will obstruct long-term recovery and may induce infection, necessitating additional surgery.
