I am considering having both upper eyelid surgery as well as a nose job. I am trying to figure out the best timeframe to schedule the procedures and am curious about recovery time for both. If I planned the surgeries for the second week of September, generally speaking, would I be healed enough to attend an event by the first weekend of November? By "healed enough" i mean, should I expect the swelling to have subsided/ look good enough to attend the event without worry.

Answer: Recovery Time YES, one month should be enough time for sufficient recovery that you look good even close up, but this depends on the type of blepharoplasty (and rhinoplasty) that are done, the technical quality of your procedure, your own individual healing response, and your standards for your own appearance.

Answer: Swelling may last onger Long term recovery following blepharoplasty and rhinoplasty is mostly dependent on the amount of swelling and how quickly it resolves. Although it may take up to a year for all swelling to resolve and the final results to be visible, most swelling is resolved by about 3 months. I find it greatly varies among people; age and underlying medical problems can significantly prolong swelling. On the other hand, incisions tend to heal fast after these procedures and may have started to fade by two months postop. I believe a reasonable time frame for recovery would be about three months, but depending on your health and your expectations, you may be fine at 2 months postop.
