As a rule, eyelid procedures are associated with minor recovery and allow one to return to routine living after a few days using cosmetics and sunglasses. If your work requires you to perform strenuous activity, heavy lifting, or bending over, we will ask that you avoid these activities for 7-10 days after your eyelid/brow surgery.
Regular exercise can be resumed gradually starting at 10 days after blepharoplasty/browlift surgery. Strenuous athletic activity (swimming, diving, skiing, etc) should be avoided for at least one (1) month after surgery.
