Unilateral ridge/depression on cheek after Restylane in tear troughs. Is further treatment required? (photo)

sjg12345
Since Restylane treatment to my tear troughs 2 months ago, i have noticed a ridge beneath this area affecting my right side only. Will more filler minimise this effect? I don't want to enhance the problem. 1.5ml of Restylane was used in total. i don't have any before pics however i have never noticed this before the filler. Along with best treatment options, what would most likely be the cause? I sincerely appreciate any responses or advice!
