Smart Lipo Done - 8 Days Later and Still Very Swollen? Is This Normal?

I had smart Lipo under my chin, with the three incision points, which are healing nicely. The laser treatment happend about 8 days ago and I am bigger, more swollen than I was before I had the surgery from just fat. It's been itchy, still numb underneath my chin. I ice it regularly and keep the compression on it at all times. My sister had this done about 6 months ago and she seemed to have much less swelling. Should I be having this much swelling at day 8? I see no results, is there a problem?
