Does the incision method really cause more swelling? The answer is ‘No’.
Swelling depends on how the line is designed and, to some extent, the surgeon’s skill. By skill, I mean how well they manage hemostasis (stopping the bleeding). However, please note that even if hemostasis isn’t perfect or swelling lasts a bit longer, the final result is usually the same. It just makes the recovery process a bit tougher. ^^;;
