Hello @szqyoung, welcome to Connect. I'd like to invite some members who have talked about having a revision so they can share their experience with you. @amberpep, @gutthookd, @franciesusan, and @maryann1753 have all talked about having knee revisions and may be able to share how long it took for them to recover. I think you may also find a few of the following discussions worth looking through as well:

@szqyoung, what is your range of motion like after having a knee revision?

Range of motion is great. No issues with straightening my knee and bend was over 130 degrees within 2 weeks of surgery. Even with the issues I’ve had, my range of motion is still good except after a busy day on my feet. Then the swelling affects the range slightly. I should have noted that I have always stood with my knees hyperextended. My DR said that this does affect my tendons.
