An important question for many of our Houston facelift patients is how long will they need time off after their facelift or necklift.  This will depend on the type of surgery performed and your healing.  Deep plane facelifts with platysmaplasty of the neck may require 2-3 weeks until you are feeling social or ready to return to work.  A mini facelift may take 10-14 days until you are able to get out.  Of course this will all depend on the healing time which can be different for each patient.
