What can be done to correct indent under cheek after facelift? It looks hollow. (Photo)

May 31, 2015
Asked By:Kathy in NC in North Carolina, NC

One side of my face appears much tighter and there is an indent under my cheek. Also that side (left) is a bit larger. Im thinking I might need a revision in a few months but in the meantime is there something I can do to soften my appearance. Procedure did involve lipo, 4 months ago. Not really sure what is going on with that side.
