Hi , I have had subcision on a scar on my cheek 6 days ago and the area is still very swollen. Feels more like soft muscle than fluid. I'm unsure if it is swelling anymore. I have had subcision before on the other side of my face however this was from a different doctor and I did not get this reaction. I am taking anti inflammatory pain killers , ice and antibiotics? What is this lumpiness underneath my skin and will it go?
