Ultherapy Makes Me Look Like a Chipmunk. Is This Swelling? Is This Normal?

Giselle_9
I had ultherapy done just last week around my jowls. Strangely enough, I had it done just one side of my face because another side is not much droopy. After the ulthera, I just had redness on my face that went away after 5hours. However, I notice (especially from my picture I compared (before/after)) that my jowl look more droopy and swollen like a chipmunk only for the side that had ultherapy done. Does this because of fat loss after the treatment or just swelling?
