Swelling of face after hair transplant?

Bruno2017
I had hair transplant surgery on 18th & 19th Feb. As I had grade 7 baldness, doctor decided to get hairs from my beard. I had about 6000 grafts transplanted and almost 4000 grafts were taken from beard. Now my face is swollen. There is no swelling on forehead or on eyelids. But cheeks are swollen badly with red dots. Any recommendation to reduce swelling ? When Can I start shaving ?
