Cheek swelling after lipolysis injection?

January 10, 2018
Asked By:ccc2018 in Los Angeles, CA

My doctor injected me a very light and diluted formula of ppc in the cheeks and jaw line. This is now 5 days ago. He said that there would be no big swelling since it wasn‘t much medication injected. But the swelling was really intense on day 1 and 2. Now it is a littler better but the skin on the area feels chubby and extremely soft. It still doesnt look normal and is still thicker than my before face. Will this go back to normal? Can this be still swelling even if its so chubby and soft?
