is it possible that the swelling is just starting now which make the results not look as good as straight after the operation?

Hi, this is normal. Pain and discomfort varies greatly between patients, some start early and some don't. Since your procedure is only 2 days ago, expect some redness, which is usually the first stage of bruising followed by blue, purple, and finally, the healing stage of green and yellow. Most of the #swelling and #bruising will resolve in the first two weeks, although some may persist for 6–8 weeks. If you have any more concerns at all about your healing process, do not hesitate to contact your surgeon.

I hope your concern was addressed. #RealSelf100

It is normal for swelling to kick in after the first day.It will go down over the next few weeks.It may also turn firm to touch after 3-4 weeks as you go through a phase of hard swelling.Hang in there.
