Filler Dissolving

Dissolve Hyaluronic Acid Filler Safely & Responsibly.

Dermal filler results do not always turn out as expected. You may feel that too much filler has been placed, notice unevenness or migration, or simply decide that you would prefer to return closer to your appearance before treatment. In other situations, dissolving filler may be recommended for clinical reasons.

At Pure Perfection, Hyalase treatment is approached carefully and medically. Rather than simply dissolving filler on request, we begin by assessing the area, understanding what product was used and why you are considering removal. Where appropriate, hyaluronidase can then be used to break down hyaluronic acid dermal filler.

What To Expect?

Hyalase is an injectable treatment used to dissolve hyaluronic acid filler. Your treatment will depend on the amount, location and type of filler present, as well as the reason it needs to be dissolved.

Discomfort level

Minimal to moderate

Duration of results

Depends on the amount of filler being dissolved

Recovery time

Minimal

Procedure time

60 minutes

Anaesthetic

Where appropriate

Final results

Assessed once swelling has settled and the filler has broken down

Understanding the Procedure

Hyalase contains hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid. Because many commonly used dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, hyaluronidase can be injected into selected areas to accelerate their breakdown.

The decision to dissolve filler should still begin with an assessment. Lumps, swelling, asymmetry or changes in facial contour are not necessarily caused by the same thing, and understanding what has been injected, where it was placed and what is now causing concern helps us determine the safest and most appropriate approach.

The procedure

Your appointment begins with a detailed assessment of the area and a discussion about your previous filler treatment. Where possible, it is helpful to know which filler was used, when it was injected and how much product was placed.

If Hyalase is appropriate, small amounts are carefully injected into the areas containing hyaluronic acid filler. The amount required will depend on the product, area and extent of correction needed. In some cases, more than one treatment may be required rather than attempting to dissolve everything in a single appointment.

Following treatment, temporary swelling, redness, tenderness or bruising can occur. The area should be allowed to settle before the final outcome is assessed, particularly if you are considering having filler placed again in the future.

Who benefits?

Hyalase may be appropriate for patients who are unhappy with the appearance of previous hyaluronic acid filler, including concerns about overfilling, asymmetry, lumps, irregularity or migration. It can also be used when filler needs to be dissolved for clinical reasons. Suitability will always be assessed individually, as hyaluronidase does not dissolve every type of injectable filler.

The philosophy

Corrective treatment deserves the same care and attention as the original procedure.

Our priority is to understand what has happened and determine the safest next step. Sometimes this means dissolving a small amount of filler rather than removing everything. In other cases, more extensive dissolution may be appropriate before the area is reassessed.

Your results

Hyaluronidase begins breaking down hyaluronic acid filler after it is injected, but the area may initially appear swollen following treatment. It is therefore important not to judge the final result immediately.

Once swelling has settled, your practitioner can reassess the area and determine whether sufficient filler has been dissolved or whether further treatment is required. If you are planning to have filler replaced, we will advise when it is appropriate to consider further treatment.

Combine Treatments

Hyalase is primarily a corrective treatment, so additional procedures are not automatically recommended. Once the area has settled, however, we can reassess your face and discuss whether any further treatment would genuinely benefit you.

Dermal Fillers

Why stack this?

If filler has been dissolved because of poor placement, migration or an unwanted result, carefully planned dermal filler may be considered at a later stage once the tissues have settled.

Polynucleotides

Why stack this?

Polynucleotides can support skin quality and regeneration where the priority is improving the condition of the skin rather than adding facial volume.

Discover Treatment

Skin Boosters

Why stack this?

Where improving hydration and overall skin quality is more appropriate than restoring volume, skin boosters may form part of a future treatment plan.

Discover Treatment

ZO Skincare

Why stack this?

A personalised medical skincare programme can support overall skin health without immediately introducing further injectable treatment.

Combine Treatments

Treatment stacking is the practice of combining different clinical modalities, either in a single session or a structured timeline to address skin health comprehensively rather than trying to fix everything with one tool.

No. Hyaluronidase is used to break down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. It will not dissolve every type of injectable product, which is why knowing what was previously injected is helpful wherever possible.

Hyaluronidase begins breaking down hyaluronic acid after treatment, but swelling can make it difficult to assess the result immediately. We recommend allowing the area to settle before deciding whether further treatment is required.

Not necessarily. Depending on your concern, targeted dissolution may be possible. In other circumstances, it may be more appropriate to dissolve a greater amount of the existing filler. This will be discussed during your assessment.

Downtime is generally minimal, although swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising can occur around the injection sites. The degree of swelling varies between patients.

You may feel brief stinging or discomfort as the product is injected. We will discuss comfort measures with you before treatment where appropriate.

Temporary swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising can occur. Hyaluronidase can also cause allergic reactions, including rare but potentially serious reactions. Your medical history and suitability will therefore be assessed carefully and the potential risks explained before elective treatment.
