I recently had a facelift and heard that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) might help with recovery. Has anyone actually tried HBOT after a facelift? Did it really help speed up healing, reduce swelling, or minimize bruising? I’m curious about both short-term effects and overall recovery experience.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be used post-facelift to support recovery by improving circulation and healing. I tried it mainly for swelling, and I felt like it helped in the short term especially with stiffness and discomfort early on.
Yes, HBOT can help after a facelift by improving oxygen flow to tissues, which may reduce swelling and bruising. I tried a few sessions post-op, and my swelling went down faster than expected, especially around the jawline.
I tried HBOT after my facelift, and I did notice some benefits. My swelling and bruising seemed to settle faster than I expected, and I felt like my skin healed more evenly. It wasn’t a miracle cure I still had to follow all the usual post-op care, but overall, I felt my recovery was a bit smoother and quicker.
