Severe swelling after restylane voluma to the lips. Is this normal? (Photo)

christopher.cc90
I had 1 ml of restylane volume injected into my lips yesterday afternoon at around 5pm. I went home and iced my lips like I was instructed and when I woke up in the morning my lips are severely swollen. They are very tender but the swelling has got me concerned. I have had my lips done before but with Juvederm and did not have this effect. Is this normal for restylane? I'm just a little worried as this has not happened with previous fillers.
