Swelling after SculpSure? The swelling scares me. Will it last more than a week?

nwgrl
I had 3 panels put on each inner thigh today for Sculpsure. It hurt a lot and I was shaking... I’m still tender (6 hours later) and I’m extremely swollen where the applicators were. I’m drinking a lot of water and green tea. I was told not to take Advil and that I could take Tylenol but I haven’t. The swelling scares me. Will it last more than a week?! Any advise is appreciated! Thanks!
