How Soon Can I Return to Work?

The amount of time you should spend before going back to work depends on the procedure. A facelift, for example, demands a longer recovery time than a lip lift or blepharoplasty. This is because the facelift is more invasive, reworking deeper structural supports within the face.

>That said, most of the surgical procedures Dr. Jacono performs allow you to return to work within 7 to 10 days. During this time, swelling and residual pain subside. Patients will see full results within a few weeks to months.
