The procedure is accomplished in an outpatient setting. Most patients return to home after only a few hours. Recovery is usually under one week, at which time patients may return to work and non-strenuous activities. Mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common the first two weeks after surgery. Most patients feel confident returning to their public and social lives in 7-10 days. Dr. Jay Keni reduces bruising and recovery time with the use of homeopathic and herbal options.
