Swelling in legs and feet 4 weeks after BBL. Is this normal? (photos)

sbree03
I had a BBL.4 weeks ago. They took fat from my lower back and love handles. Swelling in those areas has gone down. However, swelling in my legs and feet has not. Is it normal to have so much swelling in an area that was not treated? The swelling increases throughout the day and can get painful from the tightness.
