What Happens if I Don’t Like My Filler?
Provided a Hyaluronic Acid-based filler was used during treatment, Hyaluronidase can be injected to break down and dissolve the poorly placed filler. Hyaluronidase (also known as Hyalase) is an enzyme that causes hydrolysis of synthetic hyaluronic acid (leaving your natural hyaluronic acid intact).
Before dissolving any filler, a patch test should always be carried out to ensure that the patient is allergic to Hyaluronidase (there has been evidence to show that people that are allergic to bee stings may also be allergic to this product). Hyaluronidase is injected directly into the area where the filler is that needs to be dissolved. The treatment can sting, therefore generally lidocaine is injected to reduce discomfort.
