Scars post facelift - can this be corrected? (photos)

December 8, 2022
Asked By:Dissapointed23 in Miami, Florida

I had a facelift six months ago. The scars on one side of my face healed in this lumpy way. It feels like hard ridges to the touch. Can this be corrected? I have been religiously massaging with scar cream and it’s not improving. Absolutely hates this and want to correct as soon as possible. What are options and cost ?
