Right After Sculptra Injection, Left Side Swelled Much More Than Right Side, Was It Due to More Injection on Left Side? (photo)

Supatra in California
I had Sculptra injected 36 hours ago by an experienced doctor. Right after procedure, left cheek was much more swollen than the right. After 24 hours, left cheek was also more sore but no bruising. Both sides were regularly iced and massaged. Now, the left cheek remains swollen and there's no definition between cheekbone and cheek and right cheek looks good. Will the uneven swelling subside and both cheeks become symmetrical again? What happens if there was too much injection in left cheek.
