Quick answer
Expect bruising, swelling and soreness for a few weeks and a compression garment for several weeks. Many people return to light work within a week, while strenuous activity waits longer. Final contour appears over months as swelling settles. Numbness can persist for weeks to months. Follow the surgeon's plan and report fever, severe pain or unusual drainage promptly.
