Are facelift scars normal out side of the hairline and to have hair cut? Can anything be done to ensure the scars go away?

eatsleepmove
I had a facelift 6 wks ago. My scars are worrying. They are outside of my hairline, my hair at the back is cut so hard to hide. I workout and am very uncomfortable with my hair down. Can any treatments help? Laser? Anything? Or is it too soon to worry?
