Radiesse; Dissolving the Carrier Gel with Hyaluronidase?

350Z
A few doctors have suggested that that the carrier gel portion of Radiesse can be dissolved with hyaluronidase to REDUCE the appearance of an overcorrected area (by up to 30%). Does anyone have any experience with this procedure, and is it worth trying? It's been almost 6 weeks, and my cheeks look very full and 'fake.' I had a total of 1.5cc injected by an 'experienced' and 'highly recommended' board certified plastic surgeon.
