What is the recovery time for a brow lift?

Recovery time after a brow lift varies, but most patients can return to work and normal activities within 10 to 14 days. Swelling and bruising are common but typically subside within 2 weeks. Patients may be advised to avoid heavy lifting, vigorous exercise, and other activities that could strain the healing tissues for several weeks. Following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery and optimal results. Temporary numbness or discomfort around the incision sites can occur but generally improves with time.
