Almost 6 month post facelift/neck lift swelling and burning (Photo)

A in Florida
Hello, I am 6 months post facelift/neck lift procedure, but my cheeks and neck still swell up and burn, as well as the laser procedure under the eyes. I healed well, and had no issues, but the burning and the swelling never went away. My original surgeon is not able to help, I tried many different steroids, anti-inflammatory drugs, medical laser, ared light therapy. Nothing seems to work and it does not feel like its getting better. I am on Lyrica for the pain 150m x 3 a day. I am losing hope :(
