Swelling after Permalip removal - what is the "downtime"?

Question

How long should I expect my lips to be swollen after permalip removal? How much "downtime" should I expect before it is not noticeable?

James M. Pearson, MD, FACS · Answer

Following lip implant removal, some degree of swelling is expected. Most people feel comfortable being seen in public by about 3 days. Swelling continues to

improve daily so that it is mostly (but not entirely) resolved by 7 days after

the procedure. However, final resolution of the swelling takes a little longer. Speak with your surgeon about measures that you may consider taking to facilitate resolution of the swelling.
