A Forehead Lift is a powerful facial rejuvenation solution that elevates the brows, smooths forehead wrinkles, and opens the eyes — creating a brighter, fresher, and more youthful appearance.
However, to ensure the most natural and long-lasting results, proper post-operative care plays an essential role. At Sheraton Clinic, we accompany every patient throughout their healing journey with a personalized recovery plan tailored to their anatomy and healing rate.
Post-Surgery Changes You May Experience
Immediately after the Forehead Lift procedure, a compression bandage is applied to control swelling and protect the newly lifted tissues.
Some tightness, mild numbness on the scalp, or bruising around the eyes are common and expected — these symptoms will gradually reduce within the first few days.

Following all care instructions properly will help these effects fade quickly and restore the natural look of your face.
Care During the First 3–7 Days
This stage focuses on swelling control and tissue protection:
- Keep your head elevated while resting
- Apply cold compresses as instructed
- Take prescribed medications as directed
- Avoid touching or applying pressure to the forehead.
When removing the bandage or cleaning the incision area, follow the surgeon’s guidance to prevent infection and support faster healing.
Week 2 to Week 4
As swelling continues to decrease, most patients can return to light work within 10–14 days.
However, avoid strenuous exercise or prolonged bending over as it may affect the results.
The skin may still be sensitive, therefore:
- Strictly avoid sun exposure
- Wear sunglasses when outdoors
During this period, your surgeon will monitor the incision site and remove stitches or staples at the appropriate time.
Visible Recovery from 1–3 Months
The tissues continue to settle and adapt, allowing the brow shape and forehead contour to appear increasingly natural.
Some numbness may persist but will gradually diminish as nerves regenerate.
Consistent moisturization and sun protection help the skin heal healthier and smoother.
Final Results After 6–12 Months
Around the 6-month mark, the rejuvenation becomes clearly visible from the eyes through the forehead. This is when the final and most refined outcome is revealed:
- Smoother, more even-toned forehead
- Naturally lifted brows and brighter eyes
- A refreshed, youthful facial appearance full of vitality
Diet & Lifestyle Tips for Faster Recovery
Your body needs proper nutrients to regenerate tissue. Sheraton Clinic recommends:
- High-protein & Vitamin C–rich foods (lean meat, fish, eggs, berries, leafy greens)
- Adequate water intake
- Avoid alcohol and smoking → delays healing
- Rest well and maintain a relaxed mindset

A positive mindset promotes faster recovery.
