Is it normal my face is this swollen 3 days after Secret RF? (Photos)

No, this is not normal. Most swelling from Secret RF is fairly minimal and goes away quickly. You may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the topical numbing cream or perhaps from some of the skin care products used after the treatment. Please call your physician or spa where you had treatment and ask to be seen.

Your face may be red and swollen for a few days after your secret RF treatment. Be sure to moisturize it gently and stay away from heat. It will also help to ice it until the swelling goes down. If you are still concerned about the swelling and redness after one week, call your doctor and let them know what is going on.

It is normal to have mild to moderate swelling after your treatment. Everybody reacts differently. It is not usual to use steroids after the treatment but I have used it on a few of my patients. Hydration is very important to the skin after your treatment especially when it is swollen as it will continue to dry out without a good moisturizer.

Secret RF can be adjusted, so we do not know of the over passing, treatment levels, over laps nor shots fired. Additionally we do not know of your medical history. All we can say is that swelling can be seen in majority of cases and will or should subside by day 4. PRP, and anti- inflammatories POST Secret RF will decrease swelling and aid in future recovery. If you have any side effect, please contact your specialist, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
