Will my Face Go Back to Normal After Being Overfilled with Perlane then Reversing It with Vitrase?

Lalady1
In August I had my nasolabial folds, creases around my mouth and other folds in my face filled and I looked horrible and overfilled. I couldn't stand it, so a week later I had it reversed. I am STILL puffy in certain areas, dented in other, and my skin has stretched! The vitrase caused my nasolabial folds to look worse than before the procedure, and I am puffy above them, and below them. What is happening, and will my face return to normal? I have creases i never even had before! This is a nightmare.
