Can it ever be normal to have trouble with speech/articulation after neck lift?

I am one day post-op from a neck lift. I noticed right away in recovery that I was having difficulty articulating my speech. My doctor does use a lot of long acting local. Could that be causing it? Is this ever normal, and if so how long does it usually last?
