At what point will the swelling and hardness formed after Chin Liposuction go away?

October 9, 2016
Asked By:missparker2016 in Gainesville, FL

I had chin liposuction done about three weeks ago. The area under my chin is still very hard and swollen. Unfortunately, my doctor did not mention anything about compression for the area, nor did he provide a garment. Is there anything I can do to reduce the swelling? Will it stay like this and should I be concerned?
