Filler in my chin is really hurting, is that normal?

Asked By:hellodoc2018 in Montreal, QC

About 12 hrs ago I received filler in my chin for the first time. Theres no need for pictures as my results are good (no bruising), however, the doctor said there will only be mild discomfort but to me it's starting to feel painful. If I try to smile or eat it really hurts when I move, it feels swollen and the texture is really hard. I'm wondering if it's normal that it hurts and also if I'll be able to fully smile again before it wears off. I can smile a bit but not to the extent that I used to.
