Coolsculpted chin is really swollen, hard, red and hot to touch. Is this normal? ()

Asked By:cgirl87 in Portland, OR

I had my chin Coolsculpting done three days ago now. I had both sides and then the middle treated. So, three in one sitting. All three resulted in the same lump that you can see in the first picture. What is concerning is that my entire chin is hot to the touch. This certainly isn't what I expected. It's so noticeable that I was asked if I was ok at the store this morning. I've included some pictures that I just took. It's swollen, hard, red and hot. What do you think?
