i had permalip implant exactly one month ago - had normal swelling for the first 2 weeks but it is in my mustache area and looks super weird. went to PS last week - he said i was still swollen and we would need to wait few more weeks which i understand but i can that it is too high!?! it's also very hard and doesn't come close to the corners of my mouth - about 3/4"-1" away. also, the right side sticks out. didn't the dr put it in too high? is it better to remove it sooner or wait?
