Timing of browlift after facelift

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: When to have brow lift after facelift and neck lift?

How long after a lower facelift and neck lift should I wait to have a lateral brow lift (due to swelling, etc.)? These procedures will be done by two different surgeons. It just has to be done this way. Thank you.

These 2 surgeries are basically unrelated so you could do them even as close as 2 weeks apart.  Maybe even less if you did the brow first.  Just ask the 2 doctors what they recommend and why.

A: Wait two months after face/neck lift to have browlift

It is adequate to have a browlift approximately two months after a face/neck lift surgery, which is when most of the swelling will be resolved.
