Can a steroid shot be used to break up an old bump from fillers years ago?

San Francisco9395
Five years ago I got Juverderm fillers on my laugh lines. I got a bump in that area. Never went away. The new doctor I use said he can shoot a shot of steroids in it to see if it will break it up. Hyaluronidase did not work. Is that something doctors do? Could I end up with an indentation if it breaks up? I did not want to give him the go ahead until I get feedback on here. Thank you
