Crooked Smile After Mini Facelift and Chin Lipo

pleazeeehelp
My mom is 8 days post op for mini facelift (lower portion of face) and chin lipo...my issue is that her smile is crooked right now. Is this permanent? I am very worried and am hoping this is common and will go away. the dr assured her that he did not cut any nerves. please advise as she is very depressed about it. thank u. She never had a crooked smile before and I cant seem to find much about this. If it is common, how long does it take to go away and is there anything she can do to improve?
