I have a raised ridge in my cheek, and a deep groove that goes to my eye. Is this from Juvederm, and can it be fixed? (photo)

I have gotten Juvederm in my nasolabial folds about once a year for the past few years. After my last treatment (about 6 months ago), I noticed that on my right side, it didn't quite blend as well and left a noticable ridge. My cheek still looks weird and lumpy, and now when I smile or make certain facial expressions there's a deep groove that extends up to my eye. Is this a result of the Juvederm, or is a muscle issue that can be fixed with something like Botox?
