Still swelling 5 days after thermage?

Olive Downey
I had thermage 5 days ago. After a day I noticed my jaw area was a bit swollen, sensitive to the touch and tingly / numb ish. It's now day 5 after and the swelling and odd sensations are still there. The area feels a little warmer than the rest of my face. I had thermage before but didn't have this. I thought the swelling should have been gone by now and am a bit concerned!
