As it is showing signs of revovery at some point you can trim off any dead stems and leaves although the leaves will drop on their own

The plant will put out new leaves from the live portion of the shrub sometime in the next few weeks

You could take all the dead wood and leaves off now but I'd be tempted to leave them for a while as they'll act as frost protection if we have any more hard frosts
