Sorry to let you know there is no way that your face will be better by then. You can try using neosporin for the cuts on your lips. For the swollen you warm heat and gargle with salt water. Take an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen to help also! I had all 4 out a couple of months ago I wasn't better for over a month. Make sure that you don't get dry socket or that will prolong the healing time! Good Luck!

Approximately 2-3 days. If your face is swollen, you can use a cold or warm pack, whatever feels better.

It took me about 3 or 4 days to feel completely normal again. I think you'll be alright then. Your face might still be a little swollen but you'll feel ok.

You should. I gargled (not swallowed) with peroxide and I had a speedy recovery.
