Long term facelift healers: when did your swelling and tightness finally settle?

I would love to hear from long term facelift healers.

I am now 5 months post op from a deep plane face and neck lift plus upper and lower blepharoplasty, and I am still dealing with noticeable swelling fluctuations. Some days I look much more normal, other days I still feel quite swollen or tight.

I also still have some hardness and weird tension around the eyes and when I smile.

I know healing can take a long time and technically I know this is still considered normal, but I guess I just need some reassurance from people who were still fluctuating at 5 months and later improved a lot afterwards.

Did anyone else still feel swollen or look “off” at month 5 and then gradually soften up over the following months? What was your timeline? Do things really get better?? ❤️
