Try ice 5 to 10 minutes on, then off for 15 to 20 minutes. You can also get an ice chip and hold it with your tongue to the inside of the lip. Time will take care of the rest of the swelling.

How finish swelling from your face when you wake up?
I'm assuming your question refers to how to reduce swelling in your face when you wake. Stomach sleepers will often have swelling in their faces due to pooling of blood and fluids during the night. To reduce swelling in the am, massage the areas to increase circulation. This helps the capillaries return excess fluids to the veins. Then, apply cold compresses. Cold will reduce/constrict blood vessels close to the surface of the skin.
