The recovery time for a facelift is typically 2 to 4 weeks for most visible swelling and bruising to subside. Many patients return to light daily activities within 10 to 14 days, while full healing and final results may take several months.
Typical facelift recovery timeline:
First 3–5 days: Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are common.
7–14 days: Stitches removed and return to light activities.
2–4 weeks: Most visible swelling significantly reduces.
4–6 weeks: Resume exercise with medical approval.
3–6 months: Final results gradually become visible.
