Scabbing and crusting after facelift.

I had very little discomfort after my facelift, but I am concerned that at 20 days post-op I still have a small deep scab on my cheek and crusting and heavy scarring behind and around my ears.  Has anyone else has this and is now healed?  My board certified plastic surgeon says I am just healing slowly.  It's not that I necessarily doubt him, I'm just worried.  I wonder why I am healing so slowly.  Also, where do you get a roller than you can use on your neck?  Is it for the scar on your chin or is it to reduce the swelling on the entire neck.
