Subsicion under Malar bag area - is this safe? (photos)

Modest451537
Hello! I have lines on my face where my cheekbone meets my cheek. My esthetician wants to insert a cannula under the skin in this area and separate two areas (she called it "perforation", but i guess the right english term for this procedure is "subsiction"). She claims that after these manipulations the lines will disappear. I am worried because I cannot find any information about this procedure. Is it even safe?
