Jen,
If it is as bad as you say I can't believe someone won't help you. I got a facial support, but I it was on prescription and cost less than $50. It was Facioplasty support by Jobst. Also says "Epstein". But the lymphedema specialist said you had to do the massage first or the bandage did not do any good. They made a little "wedge" that I tucked in next to my left cheek, which was slightly swollen. All you need are 3-4 appointments really to get going on the massage. Surely if you explain to someone that you have to pay it out of pocket they can give you an abbreviated version. The main thing is you doing the massage on a daily basis. Hope this helps somewhat.
