Lump under chin after chin lipo. (photo)

Chance55
2 weeks ago today I underwent lipo under my chin area. Only 1 incision at my chin. I now have this elongated mass under my chin. I have worn the compression band 24/7 for the past weeks. My doctor says the lump is a blood clotting. I thought if I worn the compression, it was not prevent fluid or blood collection? My concern now if the skin will sag, the clot will remain and the lipo was a waste of money? Any thoughts from other doctors is appreciated.
