Filler dissolving uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. It works quickly—often within 24 to 48 hours—to correct unwanted or migrated filler and restore natural contours.

Benefits:

• Corrects overfilled or uneven areas

• Restores a more natural, balanced look

• Prepares the face for new filler if desired

• Fast results with little to no downtime

You may be a good candidate if you:

• Have filler that migrated or looks overdone

• Notice lumps or uneven results

• Want a clean slate before re-treatment

• Need urgent correction due to rare complications like vascular occlusion

How to prepare before your dissolving appointment:

• Avoid alcohol, ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil, and vitamin E for 48 hours to minimize bruising.

• Come with a clean face—no makeup or skincare on the treated area.

• If you’ve had filler placed elsewhere, bring documentation or photos, if available.

• Let us know if you’ve had allergic reactions to bee stings or hyaluronidase in the past.

• Hydrate well and eat a light meal beforehand.

What to expect after dissolving:

• Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection site is normal and typically resolves within a few days.

• Some bruising may occur, especially in areas with previous filler or vascularity.

• Final results are visible within 1–2 days, though residual swelling may take a few more days to resolve.

Aftercare instructions:

• Avoid touching, massaging, or applying pressure to the area for 24 hours.

• Refrain from strenuous activity, heat exposure, and alcohol for 24–48 hours.

• Use a cold compress gently if needed for swelling or discomfort.

• Avoid applying makeup on the treated area for the rest of the day.

• Follow up with your provider before undergoing additional treatments or re-injecting filler.

When to contact us:

• If you experience increased swelling, itching, rash, or difficulty breathing, contact us immediately (these are rare signs of an allergic reaction).

• We may schedule a follow-up to reassess and plan future enhancements.

What is filler dissolving?

Filler dissolving involves injecting hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. It safely and effectively reverses overfilled, uneven, or migrated filler.

What type of filler can be dissolved?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers—such as Juvederm, Restylane, Revanesse, RHA Collection, and others—can be dissolved. Non-HA fillers like Radiesse can be dissolved under certain protocol.

How long does it take to work?

Results can start to appear within minutes to a few hours. Full breakdown typically occurs within 24–48 hours, though some cases may require multiple sessions.

Is it safe?

Yes. When administered by a trained provider, hyaluronidase is safe and effective. A patch test may be recommended for those with a history of allergies.

Does it hurt?

You may feel mild stinging or pressure during the injection. Numbing is available to ensure comfort.
