Is this late onset swelling OR migrated filler? How to fix the problem without using hyaluronidase? (photos)

Asked By:Booblift1 in Beverly Hills, CA

In Dec I got under eye filler, placed only in the area from the middle area to the outer part of the under eye, as the inner parts (close to nose) were still filled from the last time (3-4 years ago). It looked great until I had the flu 6 weeks later. Suddenly I noticed the injected part to be a bit swollen and even after I got better, it still looked the same. Whenever I had lumps prior, I would massage and it would turn out great. Does it look like the filler migrated below into my cheek?
