My cheek & tear trough filler has made my eyes look small and piggy - can only some be dissolved or does all have to be removed?

Asked By:Simone11 in Los Angeles, CA

Can filler be placed in different areas in the cheek? I've had some put in - 3/4 angle I look great. Front facing my eyes have disappeared! I look very piggy. So can I have the filler dissolved slightly (so keeping some filler in there?) And next time can the doctor place filler elsewhere in my cheek to suit me better?
