Small bumps at hair roots after beard transplant (cobblestone?) (Photo)

canyoushine
Today is 11th day after my beard transplant (2200 fue, good recovery). I used an electric laser to carefully shave the hair, no blood and no roots came out. However, I notice in my chin and mouth area, there are quite a few small bumps at the bottom of the hair (especially those grafts with 2 hairs). Are these normal? I read online about "cobblestone" where the grafts were not inserted too deep. Now I am really worried. Are these cobblestone? Are bumps permanent? How can I reduce/remove them?
