Should I dissolve my temple filler or get more to correct puffiness and dents? (photos)

Asked By:sunstar620 in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina
Hi. 4 months ago I had temple and cheek filler injected via cannula entry from cheek. Ever since, I’ve been self conscious about my temples. You can see they look puffy if the light is not directly on my face. I notice small dents from where the filler ends/veins are to the orbital rim of my eye. Is it better to dissolve this or can more be placed to correct? I’m showing 4 photos of the same filler on the same day in different lights. Thank you

From the submitted photo it appears the filler may have been placed too superficially. If HA filler was used you should have improvement from dissolving it with hyaluronidase. It sometimes takes multiple attempts to fully dissolve the filler. See an expert injector for an in person evaluation.
