Asked By:Alicey0912 in New Zealand, NZ

Yesterday I decided to have that procedure as well as neck liposuction. My doctor did not inform me that the extent of swelling would be this severe. I was under the impression it would only be mild. Judging from the pictures I've provided, how long would it take for my face to go back to its normal size?
