The recovery time for a facelift is approximately three weeks. During this time you will be unable to lift anything greater than ten pounds, cannot push/pull or strain, cannot exercise or get the heart rate about 90 beats per minute. You would return to the office the day after surgery to have your head wrap removed. The next visit would be approximately five days after surgery to remove the pre-auricular sutures. The third visit would be a week after that to remove the post-auricular sutures.
