Ultherapy - "Gobble" Area Under Chin Looks Worse - Normal (Temporary) Side Effect?

Suzetta
I had ulthera done on the neck, chin, jawline, and lower face a few days ago. The day after the procedure, the saggy area under my chin had grown much larger and is sagging down much lower, and is now much more noticeable than before. Is this likely swelling that will resolve, with that area going back to normal or being improved? The skin is really hanging down and feels loose and flaccid. Also, my neck and that area under the chin are numb. Are these normal side effects? Thanks in advance!
