Is this normal after juvederm fillers? (Photos)

SJE23
I had 1ml of juvaderm ultra in my lips on Friday. All was fine until I woke up on Saturday looking like this.Iv been taking paracetamol and icing it most of the day and it's now Sunday and I still don't see much of a change. When should I start to panic ?! I contacted the place and they said it looks like I may of had a little bit of a reaction and to take painkillers and ice it and it will get better. Iv had filler before and I had a small amount of swelling butter not this much.
