8 Weeks Ago. - What to do?
Answer: Irregularities after a facelift
You are very early after your facelift, so there has not been enough time to consider a revision yet.
Hopefully the irregularities will iron out with some careful care by your surgeon.
If not, the fix will depend on what the problem is due to.

Answer: Post Operative Expectations After a Facelift
One can expect normal swelling in the cheek and neck area to subside in 6-8 weeks. If there are some contour irregularities many of those again will resolve in 6-12 weeks. However, if they are sustainable they may be augmented either with fillers or fat at 3-6 months. This does happen, but it is not a common occurrence.

8 weeks is still relatively early in healing process after your surgery. There are still irritated nerves and tight muscles. Be patient and continue to follow up with your surgeon as directed.

Answer: Divots---- are we playing golf
Everyone heals differently. Clearly you are concerned about some contour irregularities after your procedure, however you are still way to early for the final judgment to be caste. I know you maybe anxious put patience and reassurance are the keys. If things continue to progress then a open conversation is in order with your surgeon. Gentle massage and heat are some simple remedies to help you achieve your desired outcome. Good luck and I hope this helps
