What is the recovery time for direct brow lift?

grammy57Dec 9, 2014
I am having a direct brow lift for one eye only due to paralysis. The inner corner was lifted when my nose was reconstructed do to same paralysis. This will be just the outer 2/3s. How much bruising can I expect? Swelling? Pain? Will I be able to attend a funeral 2 days later?
