The surgery will leave a scar at the neck which will pale and fade after a while. While in recovery, avoid touching it
Avoid strenuous activities for some time

Our doctors will provide more specific post-surgery instructions after consultation that may vary from patient to patient due to factors such as pre-existing medical conditions, etc.
