How to treat and find the cause of lumps and bumps left after facelift?

angelxoxoxo
2 months post op. i had hematoma. it was drained. left scar tissue which i am treating w kenalog, warm compresses, massage, ultrasound. When i smile, my cheeks look like two big meatballs and lumpy. i am afraid i have no fat left there andcmay be you can see the underneath structures? i also have a semiliquid or semifirm lump on the cheek where the hematoma was drained and my dr says it is fat. how do i treat an egg sized fat pad on my cheek? i saw another dr. he said i cnt find out what it is
