Pocking/dimples following Aqualyx, can these be corrected? (Photo)

Question

I recently received my third round of Aqualyx. I was super happy with the results, but now, two months after the third injection, I am starting to noticed these two picks that are on the side and slightly underneath my jawline at the injection site. Can this be corrected or is it botched?

Removing fat with a series of individual injections is conceptually incorrect.
Unfortunately, you now have an uneven fat distribution, which is much more difficult to manage than how do you not had the previous treatment.
Very few plastic surgeons favor this treatment, and will instead recommend Liposuction, which is a far better treatment options 
Revision work is many times more difficult in primary Liposuction. Improving your outcome is possible but will require finding someone who’s mastered the procedure.
I suggest having multiple in person, consultations with local board-certified plastic surgeons in your area. During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before and after pictures of chin and neck Liposuction.
The best providers for doing a revision work, and most likely going to be the same providers who do the best primary procedures.
And experience provider should have no difficulty showing you the before and after pictures of at least 50 previous patients.
Revisions options to correct an uneven fat distribution come down to Revision Liposuction, fat transfer, or a combination of both.
Best,
