Almost certainly nothing to worry about. 2 things come to mind:

1) Ossification ( bone formation) in the bruise.....no big deal, if cosmetically unacceptable can be excised at a later date.

2) Broken cheek bone (maxilla).........3 weeks ago is too late to do anything about it now..........unlikely.

Leave well alone...........assess the situation in 6 months time.
