Effects of Ketamine on Facial Swelling

 

 

The effects of the 3-day, 4-hour ketamine treatment on the appearance of the face can be subtle.

Three weeks after the ketamine coma procedure the research subject suffered an acute exacerbation of CRPS associated with swelling in the face. Following a 3-day, 4-hour ketamine treatment swelling and allodynia of the face decreased. (Upper photo with transition)
