I want to remove my permanent filler from one of my cheeks. Who is the best person to do this?

Tinsel1
I have permanent filler in my cheek, it was put there 10 years ago. I never knew it was permanent. I0 months ago I developed a tight neck and strange palate sensation and nothing organic can be found and am worried it has something to do with this filler. Is it slowly dissolving and moving around my saliva ducts? or am I display an allergic reaction over all these year? I want to remove it. Who would be the best person to do this? I would travel anywhere. Thank you
