Is It Normal to Have Air Trapped Beneath the Scalp After Brow Lift Surgery?

vincygrl
I had an endoscopic brow lift with bleph (upper) on January 8, 2013 and have had air and some fluid trapped beneath my scalp along with numbness. Is this normal? If so, how long before it starts to go away? I cannot find any information on this in my research.
