What sort of recovery is there after a forehead lift?
After the forehead lift, bandages may be applied to the forehead which will be removed after a day or two. Patients can expect some swelling which you can help to alleviate by keeping the head elevated for the first two to three days after surgery. It will take a week or so for the majority of swelling to fade. Patients may also experience some temporary numbness and discomfort or itching around the incisions. Endoscopic patients generally experience a less involved and shorter recovery.
