9 days post SculpSure, still very swollen and tender. Is that normal?

May 18, 2018
Asked By:jist in San Antonio, TX

I had one treatment on my lower and middle abdomen. I’ve done the massaging and hydrated well since then. However, I’m still really swollen and my abdominal wall is very tender to the touch. Is this to be expected, or am I massaging too hard? I thought I would see a reduction by now. Thanks.
