What are the side effects of ultrasonic cavitation on chin?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand that you had ultrasonic cavitation on your chin about a week ago. I would like to know: Could you please elaborate whether you had this only on your chin or other parts of your face or body as well in one sitting? Do you have any underlying medical conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure? Do you have any redness, swelling, or discharge around the area where you had the probe? Since it is just a week, it is fine to feel a bit bruised and have swollen glands at this point. It is a good job of applying ice to it. Simple analgesics like Paracetamol can also take the pain away, if any.
