Pouch, fat, or filler migration by mouth? (Photo)

JT.UA
Hi there! I noticed this pouch by the right side of my mouth and it has been there for 5-6 months now. I got a bit of cheek fillers 1.5 years ago. Ended up getting sick with subacute thyroiditis 7 months later and lost a little over 10lbs as a result. Have since recovered. Could this be filler migration? Buccal fat? Perioral Mounds? Muscle? Anything I can do for this? I'm in my early 30s and it's making me a bit self conscious :).
