Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Dermal Filler Dissolving.

We use hyaluronidase enzymes administered by medical providers to break down hyaluronic acid fillers. The enzyme quickly dissolves the product, reducing lumps or unwanted volume. Results start within hours to days; full effect may require follow-up treatments depending on filler amount and placement.

Most clients report only mild discomfort. We apply topical anesthetic or local numbing and use gentle injection techniques. Sensations are brief, and post-procedure soreness is manageable with cold compresses and over-the-counter pain relief as advised by your provider.

Initial improvement can appear within hours to a few days as the enzyme acts. Complete resolution often occurs within one to two weeks, though several sessions may be necessary based on filler type, amount injected, and the treated area.

Hyaluronidase dissolves hyaluronic acid fillers effectively, but it does not work on non-hyaluronic products like calcium hydroxylapatite or permanent fillers. We evaluate your filler type during consultation and recommend appropriate corrective options or referral when necessary.

Common side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness at injection sites. Allergic reactions are rare but possible; we perform medical screening and use tested protocols to minimize risks. Serious complications are uncommon with experienced clinicians.

Avoid blood thinners like aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements for one week before treatment if medically appropriate. Arrive with clean skin and share your filler history, medications, and allergies so providers can plan a safe, effective dissolving strategy.
