Asked By:simoned2 in Atlanta, GA

I got Silikon 1000 five years ago. The past year I notice one cheek is bigger & higher than the other. When I smile it actually makes wrinkles under my eyes on the side that's bigger. Can I get it dissolved with a steroid shot or something overtime? I don't want lipo for fear of dents on my face. Can Kenalog help? I live in Georgia. Please help. My cheeks were nice at first. I liked them. Don't understand how they became like this. I'm actually scard to smile sometimes because it looks strange.
