I finally got referred to an oral surgeon by my dentist, My bump seems to be getting bigger, and it's annoying as hell. Every time I smile it looks like I have a fat lip ...

My question is, obviously after the mucocele is removed, theres bound to be swelling/slight bruising. My sister's wedding is a few days shy of three weeks. If I were to get mine removed before that, how long do you think it would take for the swelling to go down? Is there any home remedies (ice, perhaps) that could cause less swelling!?

1. Postpone the procedure until after the wedding....

2. Ice could reduce swelling

Make sure you ask this when you see the oral surgeon

Mine healed in a week. Yes, I used an ice pack and then a heat pack. I would probably go for it before the wedding because I wouldn't want me lip like that. I think the bruising thing is uncommon, but it's up to you.
