Is it normal for my mouth, cheeks, neck, down the front of my throat and behind my ears to feel numb from facetite?

I had the facetite procedure 4 days ago to remove my double chin. I am completely numb having trouble eating and just normally swallowing. This is making me nervous that I received a botched job and that something is wrong. Not only that, my face looks square. My surgeon didn't want me to wear a compression garment but I am reading online that most surgeons require them to be worn for 2 weeks. Is numbness like this normal? Is it normal for my face to have a square shape after surgery? Will this go away?
