Is there a way to remove a delayed side effect of Sculptra that I may be experiencing?

PrettyInShockingPink
Is there a way to remove a delayed side effect of Sculptra that I may be experiencing? It is like a grain of sand or medium size drive-way rocks under the thin skin of my right eye. Easily treatable, for sure, and 'occasionally' will go away on their own but don't, a year later. These little sand like grains are just a wee bit painful 'everyday'. Is an under-eye bag lift by a very qualified surgeon, familiar with PLA the only real solution to this slight problem?
