Bump (like a swollen line from temples till near my eyes) on temples after facelift, normal? 20 days post op. (photos)

sara59
I had a facelift 20 days ago, I am healing slowly but I am having bumps( a swollen line) on each side of my temples near the stiches at my eyes level.I started panicking, is it normal? It is giving a weird look of dog eyes. I am devastated by this! If this will go away, hiw long does it takes? It is too much showing and difficult to hide with hair.
