How Can I Hide That I've Had Surgery After Browlift?

1305anon
Hi. If I was to get a coronal-type browlift, how hard would it be for me to hide that fact, including stitches, postop? I know I'd have a headdress kind of thing overnight, but I have long hair and bangs, so after the dressing was removed, could I pull the hair forward to avoid people staring at stitches? How bad am I going to look? Doctors I've consulted have so far emphasized swelling more than bruising. Thanks.
