Bump on Cheek after lower facelift. Will they diminish with massage? (Photo)

boweraAug 23, 2022
I had a lower facelift and lower blepharoplasty done Feburary 2022. I have a bump under my left eye and a large round bump on my right cheek. I was told by my PS that I should rub them. I've been doing that at least 3 or more times a day (the under eye for 5 months and the cheek for 3 months) They are not getting better. I would like to know if you think they will diminish with massage or if I need someone to correct them?

I think that nonsurgical modalities are a great tool for the right patient. Filler adds volume. If you are worried about sag and poor contour I do not think that adding volume will make a great difference. Nonsurgical modalities long term are more expensive and require maintenance. For the right...

From the photos, the Advanced MiniLift under local would give such great results and is so easy to undergo. It fixes the jawline and neck quick and safely. Never go under general if you can help it. Cost is on special currently for just $15,000 and is so worth it. Also you need the skin...

Based on the photos shown, you have typical signs of an aging lower face and neck. A neck-lift alone will not make you happy. A deep plane facelift allows for lifting the SMAS and skin in a composite fashion, release of facial ligaments, and tightening of the platysma muscle to improve the...

Thank you for your question and sharing your photographs. You have obviously explored many avenues to achieve your desired changes with nonsurgical treatments. It seems unlikely that further efforts along these lines would be more successful. A short scar deep plane facelift is more likely to...

​A combination of non-surgical options like Kybella, PDO NovaThreads, Ultherapy and Thermage would do well in combination for skin tightening for the neck. VASER Liposuction (with ThermiRF, Renuvion and InMode FaceTite) is a great alternative for contouring and tightening the chin and neck and c...
