Hyaluronidase Safe for Use Around the Eyes?

GhostMonKeY
I had Juvederm injected around my eyes. My left eye is puffy it looks like I was punched in the eye, I am miserable with the results. I went back to the doctor and complained about what he had done and asked for Hyaluronidase treatment to breakdown the Juvederm. . . He refused saying that Hyaluronidase would cause my cheek to droop or cause damage to my eye! Is this true or is this doctor trying to cover his mistake? How safe is it to use Hyaluronidase to remove Juvederm around the eyes? Help !!! Please, I really need to correct this and I do not know what my options are. Thank you for your time.
