What is the recovery like after the eyelid lift?
Recovery after the eyelid lift takes about a week. Swelling and bruising are common after surgery, and keeping the head elevated as much as possible during the first few days can help to alleviate the swelling. Bruising usually fades within two to four weeks. The eyelids may feel dry, itchy or burning during the first week and excessive tearing, blurred or double vision, or sensitivity to light may also occur.
