Festoon from long-lasting filler? Will hyaluronidase work? (photos)

September 25, 2015
Asked By:mm73 in New York, NY

I've had these diagonal lines (festoons?) across the top of my cheeks for 2 years. They are very noticeable in certain lighting, and I just want them gone. I had filler (juvederm) under my eyes a couple of years ago to fill in the undereye area. I never had these malar(?) lines prior to this. Can this be a long-lasting result of the filler? They are squishy, not hard. I had filler in my upper eye-lid too, and that is still present over 2 years later (I like it there). I'm 40 with fair skin.
