Juvederm Nasolabial lines -- swelling

Tesssa
Had Juvederm for the first time in my nasolabial line 5 months ago. Followed up yesterday w/ minor touch up, probably about 1/4 a syringe. The moment I left, I looked fine. Went out that night, feeling confident. I didn't drink or exercise but I didn't ice or do any after care. I'm 24 hours post & my lines looked raised, my skin is red at injection site & my smile cat-like. No bruises, but I did bleed a bit. If I looked fine post injection, should I expect to return to that? Nervous. Thank you.
