How to fix pigmentation caused by Juvederm?

I had Juvederm injected in under eye area. I requested no numbing but the PS insisted on using an injectible block. This along with the Juvederm injections caused severe bruising which lasted 3 wks.

Now that the bruising is gone, there's a brownish stain where the bruise was. I contacted the PS and his nurse told me that it was pigmentation and to use Auroderm. I have been using this for 3 wks w/ no improvement.

How long before improvement? Would also like to have the Juvederm disolved, too puffy. Will this help w/ color? Thanks
