How long is the recovery time for this procedure?

This procedure, in particular, is one that I'm not sure I'd be interested in just because I'm afraid to have bandages all over my face during the recovery time.  How long does it take and what does one look like during the recovery stage (I've got to go to work!)?

I think the bandages are limited to the area around the face and don't cover the face itself.

Recovery should be about 6 weeks, just like any other surgery, as far as I know.

Most people can return to work after a typical face lift within 10 to 14 days.  A "mini face lift" has a recovery time of just one weekend. 

Not too bad, really.
