Filler Removal

The only fillers that can be removed swiftly and with little difficulty are those made of hyaluronic acid.

The greatest treatment option for removing HA Filler and minimizing lumps or puffiness brought on by HA dermal filler in the face or body is an enzyme called hyaluronidase that may be injected.

If hyaluronidase is injected into the treated region, it instantly starts to break down the chemical connections of hyaluronic acid. Depending on the amount, depth, and concentration of the filler, this activity lasts for between 24 and 48 hours.

Given the possibility of a severe allergic reaction, hyaluronidase should only be provided by an experienced doctor in its administration and test patch has to be done prior the procedure

Some possible side effects:

• Not all fillers are completely reversible – Depending on the type of filler utilized, the treatment could not be reversible. Hyaluronidase will not reverse popular brand-name fillers like Radiesse and Sculptra. In this case, the patient will need to wait for the fillers to be absorbed by their body.
• Even after the hyaluronidase injection is administered and the lip volume begins to decrease, most patients only notice 80% to 85% drop in volume.

If a person has received several filler injections over a longer period of time, there is a potential that even after the filler has completely dissolved, the lips may still have residual fullness that will never go away naturally
