Second time having Juvederm in the lips, but this time terrible swelling, should I be concerned? (Photo)

statuspostjuvederm
I had juvederm done with a plastic surgeon about 1 year ago very conservatively and had a slight bruise but no swelling and minimal pain. Last night around 6 pm I had it done again, with a different facial plastic surgeon. Immediately after it looked great! About 4 hours later however my upper lip is HUGE! (This is where he put most of the filler) And this morning it is still enormous. I'm so scared that this is how they will look, instead of how they looked immediately after the treatment.
