5 months post op, Bellafill injected near/on a nerve. What can be done to remove it?

Asked By:CC9 in California, CA

5 months ago, 2 syringes of Bellafill injected into medial cheek and lower eyelids up to waterline (I DID NOT ask for it undereyes). Experienced extreme pain during and after procedure. Now have pain in lower eyelids and very dry eyes along with other symptoms. Doctors suspect filler is touching a nerve. I am in agony all day, what can be done to remove it? Neurosurgery? No visible deformities. Please help, I'm in my 20s and the medications prescribed for pain have severe side effects.
