Can Hyaluronidase Help W/ Swelling 11 Months Post Sculptra Trtment Under Eyes? (photo)

AnMaCi
47 yr old, model @ Sculptra RN training by plastic surgeon who wanted to inject along the lower orbital bone. I hesitate, is that appropriate since Sculptra is not indicated for use there. He reassured me, he has done this many times w/ good results. Swelling 11 mos post trtmnt. MD offers hyaluronidase-pocket of swelling seems to be "stuck" w/in tissue. 72 hours post trtmnt, swelling only slightly better. What if it doesn't completely resolve?
