Limit heavy lifting after eyelid and facelift surgery

William Portuese, MD answers: Heavy lifting after Eyelid surgery and Facelift?

What is the maximum weight I can lift after Eyelid surgery and Facelift? I need to know how heavy my luggage can be, since I'm flying to another city for my surgery. Thanks.

It is probably best not to lift more than 30 pounds of weight for the first two weeks after your eyelid surgery and/or a facelift surgery.
