Could this soft fluid-like bump be a result of filler migration after hyaluronidase? (Photos)

jb_23
I had my cheeks poorly injected with juvederm volumna 2 years ago. Some filler was lingering near my mid cheek (under the eye) which my doctor injected with hyaluronidase 2 weeks ago. A few nights ago, I noticed the area was still raised and began to massage it (with some force). I got up to go to the bathroom and noticed a soft, fluid-like bump under my eye in the tear trough right above where the "poor filler" was placed. Was the filler softened from the dissolver then migrated? Please help
