How long does swelling take to subside after teardrop implants have been implanted?

Asked By:deltabravo in Perth, ND

I had 315cc, teardrop implants placed behind the muscle 25 days ago. I was told that teardrop implants take longer for the swelling to go down. Mine still look like the shape of torpedoes and are palpable. Is this normal?
