Asked By:mariecara in boca raton

Hello, Three months ago I had my final candela v beam treatment. After the procedure I was extremely swollen on right side of face. This edema has persisted for 3 months; I have gone for second opinion and the derm told me I could have lymph damage and fluid is stuck there. He recommended gentlwave LED treatment to heal. Any other suggestions?
