Lifting
Q. Is there downtime after lifting procedures?
A.
Most procedures have 0–2 days of downtime; thread lifting up to 1 week.
📝 Detailed Answer
Downtime by procedure: ① cosmetic acupuncture: 0 days, ② high-frequency RF: 0–1 day, ③ needle RF: 1–3 days (redness, slight swelling), ④ HIFU: 0–1 day, ⑤ thread lifting: 3–7 days (slight bruising, pulling sensation). Most patients return to work next day for non-thread procedures. Plan thread lifting around weekends or vacation. Makeup OK after 24 hours for most procedures (later for laser/RF).
