Strange dent in left cheek after deep plane facelift/neck lift. Options? (photos)

Asked By:55andalive in Rolla, Missouri

Six months ago I had extensive surgery - deep plane facelift, deep neck lift, upper blepharoplasty, and revision rhinoplasty. I am still left with this very noticeable indent in my left cheek. When I smile the lump and dent bunch up under my eye, and is quite uncomfortable. When I'm not smiling it looks like I have a razor sharp cheek bone. Can this still be swelling? It feels like something is "stuck" under the skin, preventing me from smiling naturally.
