Swelling 10 week's post buccal fat removal? My cheeks look chubbier than before. (Photo)

Asked By:Kvothekkc in Turkey, TR

Hi, 10 week's ago I had buccal fat removal done. To be honest, I expected to see some results at this stage. If anything, my cheeks look chubbier than before, especially on the right side. I wonder is this due to swelling? Surely after 10 weeks all swelling should be gone? Also, the left side of my lip raises higher when I speak. Is this a common thing to happen after this procedure? Thank you.
