Asked By:lorinaha in Pawtucket, RI

i had my 1st round of injections on Wed april 27 and was not aware that the swelling would be so bad. I am celebrating my 25th anniversary on may 11 in the bahamas and i am starting to panic that this swelling will not go down. i have no problem with the numbness and slight bruising however i look horrible in pictures right now. Is there anything i can do to reduce this swelling within the next week?
