Can Facial Hemosiderin Stain Become Permanent?

Nasus
Got juvederm by my smile line and somehow the Dr hit a nerve or overfilled and cut off blood to one side of my nasal/cheek area and left it with deep brownish reddish bruises. I hear that if i don't treat it then it can possibly leave a permanent stain?? Its been about 3 weeks since it happened im wondering how soon i can start getting laser treatments? And if so what type of laser would be best for asian skin in this situation? thank you~
