Can micro liposuction be used to remove / reduce Fat grafts from the malar / zygoma areas? Or is there a better method?

Asked By:Anonymous3155 in Great Britain, GB

7 years ago as part of a reconstructive surgery I had fat grafts in the under eye area. The surgery was only supposed to address the area under one eye however without my consent 'spare' fat was very heavily grafted to the malar and zygoma area (almost giving the effect of a cheek bone implant). The effect is too heavy for my face.The surgeon who performed the operation is no longer registered. Would micro liposuction be feasible for grafts in this location? Thank you so much in advance.
