Can Water Retention Bags After Juvederm Tear Trough Filler Be Dissolved with Hyaluronidase or Will This Just Work on the Filler?

HannahJ
I had tear trough filler under the eyes and now under one eye I can clearly see lumpy filler and under the other eye there is a bag which I am guessing is water retention caused by the filler. It is 4 weeks since treatment. I had this done before by a different doctor at the same company and everything was fine. I am aware that hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve the actual filler but can it fix the actual bag of under eye water retention? I am only in my 20s and now look in my 40s!!
