Dissolving Filler

Dissolving filler is a non-surgical procedure that uses an enzyme to break down and remove dermal filler that has already been injected into the skin. It is commonly used when someone wants to reverse or adjust results from fillers (such as lip, cheek, or under-eye filler), or if there is a medical complication.

Procedure

Dissolving fillers involve using hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. This non-surgical procedure is performed to safely dissolve unwanted or overfilled filler from previous treatments. The process begins with a consultation where Our Specialist Doctors will assess the area of concern. After numbing the area, a small amount of hyaluronidase is injected into the filler site. The enzyme works quickly, breaking down the filler and naturally allowing the body to absorb it. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes less than 30 minutes. Results are visible within a few hours to a few days, depending on the area treated.

What to Expect at the Clinic:
