If only the fat pads were repositioned can the procedure be reversed? (Photos)

Littleladybell
I had lower blepharoplasty six months ago. After my recovery I noticed that I ended up with these terrible under eye discoloration I did not have before. My doctor said that he didn’t remove the fat pad but rather repositioned. I really regret the procedure and sincerely feel I look worse now. Since the fat pads were only repositioned is it possible to reverse the procedure? If so, would that resolve the problem. The first pic is before lower blepharoplasty and the second is post recovery.
