Lump on face after lower face lift surgery. Will it go away in time? (Photo)

August 14, 2018
Asked By:Amy Rosina in Baltimore, MD

I'm 13 weeks post lower facelift surgery and although it has gone down I'm still left with a pea sized lump on my cheek. I've been massaging it as advised by my PS but it's not going down. Should I ring him or will it go away in time? Thank you
