That's somewhat low, yes. As long as you feel comfortable avoiding their dropkicks you should be good to go as soon as level 20. Realistically, it would be a better idea to develop your character further: better weapons and armor, and a lot more than just 4 level ups.

Try this: go back out for now, head all the way south west, and see if you can beat that lone golem at the cliffs near the sea. You may encounter a chimera or two along the way as well. They should give you some interesting fights and make you feel better about taking on the ogres again.

Personally, when I came back to take care of the ogres I was around level 30ish, after having done a tour of the world map. Couldn't believe how easy the ogres were compared with the first time I beat my head against them.
