Asked By:Jbettarel in Riverside, CA

Hello. I had Fat grafting to the lips and face two weeks ago. Feeling fine & I'm starting to see me in the mirror. Lips are still quite puffy & swollen. When will this subside to a more normal appearance. I'm not made for duck lips. Lol!! I do have a great Doctor...just concerned. I go back to work in 2 days. Anything I can do? Thank you much.
