Fat transfer gone wrong, can it be corrected? 3 weeks post-op. (Photos)

.heba.fouad
I have undergone fat transfer by a local surgeon. I specified I only wanted to fill hollow under my eyes, but he ended up overfilling my whole face. I am now 3 weeks post operation. My under eyes are still swollen and my face look very fat. Is there a chance to go back near normal by liposuction ?
