How Long Does It Take To Recover From A Facelift?

By Experts Admin · Comments (0) · Friday, November 22nd, 2019

If you are looking for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation procedure, a facelift is the ideal choice. However, since it is an invasive procedure, downtime is significant. It’s therefore crucial to make the necessary preparations for recovery. Consequently, one of the most important questions to ask your plastic surgeon is – How long does it take to recover from a facelift.

Importance of planning for recovery after facelift surgery

If you are considering facelift surgery it’s essential to discuss the recovery plan with your plastic surgeon. Patients that are adequately prepared for recovery, and follow the post-op instructions of their plastic surgeon generally heal quickly, and have few or no complications that could affect results.

How Long Does It Take To Recover From A Facelift?

It takes an average of 6 weeks to recover from a facelift, but this may vary, depending on the extent of the procedure done. There is generally some swelling and bruising after surgery, so patients should arrange to take 1-2 weeks off work. However, patients with physically demanding jobs may need more time off.

What to expect during recovery

During the first week of recovery, patients should focus on getting adequate rest. They should therefore ask family or friends to help with childcare and household chores.

By the second week, much of the swelling and bruising should subside, and patients are generally able to resume light activities. However, strenuous activities should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. In addition, patients should seek approval from their surgeon before resuming their exercise routine.
