My chin lipo seems uneven. Would it be swollen only on one side immediately after surgery? (Photo)

feeling unsure
I had chin lipo 8 days ago. As soon as the doctor showed me a mirror, I noticed that there seemed to be an uneven area under my chin. (like one side still had some fat). He had already stitched me up and honestly I really was ready for the procedure to be over so I didn't voice my concern. I actually thought it was just swelling and would even out. Now a week later it looks even more uneven. I guess Im starting to get concerned. Would swelling even show up immediately after surgery?
