Upper or lower?: Recovery is generally very quick after upper lid surgery. Sometimes there is virtually no swelling and minimal bruising...I would say 7-10 days to essentially return to normal. Lower lid bleph is a more involved procedure and generally is associated with more bruising and swelling. Recovery is usually 10-14 days.

Pretty quickly: The recovery from eyelid surgery (especially upper eyelid surgery) is pretty quick. You may be slightly bruised and puffy for a week to 10 days, but should be "presentable". You'll notice the benefit from surgery almost immediately.
