Hyaluronidase is a soluble protein enzyme that is typically used to break down the hyaluronic acid found in dermal filler.  The solution works by breaking up the bonds that hold the HA molecules together— and encourages the body to reabsorb those molecules in a natural process that it knows how to do on its own.

​

Below are the most common reasons we see filler being dissolved:

Product Migration: How a patients anatomy functions will play a large role on where and how filler will settle.  Ultimately filler will move to the path of least resistance to find a comfortable place to sit. 

Lumps & Bumps: Areas where we see lumps and bumps the most unfortunately is in the trough and lips.  The tear trough area is quite delicate and thin, and the lips due to the high muscular function of the area.

Emergency Reversal: An emergency case is where filler in unintentionally injected into a blood vessel. Filler in a blood vessel will cause a blockage and can cease blood flow and diffusion of necessary oxygen to the tissues. When the tissues don’t have oxygen they start to die and this is known as tissue necrosis. This complication is very rare.
