5 weeks post neck/facelift. I still have a bruise and hard lump/swelling behind my chin. What can be done to fix this? (Photo)

Healing time after facelift varies from patient to patient and depending on what exactly was done during the procedure.  Lumps and bumps can occur and are usually treated with a combination of massaging the area and possibly steroid injections.  It is best to follow the recommendations of your surgeon as things do vary depending on the situation.

Fullness behind the chin after a facelift is probably a combination of a little blood and swelling fluid ie. Hematoma and edema. Additionally the upper neck muscles are worked on in this same area during the necklift and this can cause swelling in this area. All of these conditions take many months to heal and become smoother, flatter. Your surgeon will advise you on a treatment protocol but time is key.
