Thanks for your question. The choices depend on whether or not you are open to surgery. From an injector standpoint, your best longest lasting result would be a lower lid lift and a facelift, with cheek augmentation to improve on surgical results. If you are not wanting surgery, then Voluma for ...
It may be helpful to gently massage the area that concerns you. If left alone the lumps should soften over time, but massaging the area may help them smooth out faster. If after two weeks you still have concerns, return to your injector for an evaluation.
I recommend avoiding ibuprofen because it may make bruising worse. Tylenol can be used for any post-treatment tenderness. It takes 1-2 weeks for final results. Hope this helps.
