Will injectable fillers correct hollow area at submalar due to bone loss or do I need submalar implant? (Photo)

My wisdom teeth caused bone loss in my right side jaw. Over time, this has caused a hollow sunken area at the back of my jaw below my cheek bone. The result is a much less attractive and youthful shape. I'm 43 yrs old. I had sculptra 3 times and love the results except for the right submalar area. Sculptra did improve it but it doesn't seem to have enough volume to correct it. Will another type of filler correct this or do I need an implant? How many cc's or syringes do you think this will require?
