Cheek implant revision, swollen after 2 months? (Photos)

November 10, 2016
Asked By:trumano in Italy, IT

I had i right medpor removed cause it later was infected. Now I have had it placed back again. Problem is that I feel it is bigger and I am visibly more swollen from the right side than the left side. Surgeon says all is good and I should only wait, but he said the same after the first surgery when things went badly.
