Swelling is normal in a pregnancy in hands and feetto a degree but if you have excessive to the point where even aafter having your feet elevated after a few hours and swelling has not decreased a little...it a sign of pre-eclampsia. Any swelling in the face is an automatic sign of pre-eclampsia!
Other signs:
Light headed Ness (dizziness)
Change in vision
blood pressure raised
pain in the lower back (when accompanied by other symptoms listed)
Pain under your right rib (again when accompanied by other symptoms listed)
High protein in your urine (they would have to test for this)
If you believe you have any of these symptoms contact your doctor asap! Pre-eclampsia is an unstable it can go from mild to extreme (full blown eclampsia) over night!

Face swelling is definitely a symptom. I would see your doctor.
