I had my first Vanquish ME treatment yesterday and now I am very swollen. Is this normal?

Asked By:Merganza in Seattle, WA

Yesterday I had my first Vanquish ME tx and it was quite painful during the process. Afterwards my back and hip bones hurt. Today I have a huge swollen right flank (size of a fist) and am concerned. Can an inexperienced provider create harm? The DR didn't perform the tx, it was a newer employee. Should I be worried about how swollen it is? I paid $5900 in advance and don't know if I should continue the treatments.
