Dermal Filler Dissolving Treatment in London
Dermal fillers have become the foundation of the non-surgical facial rejuvenation landscape in the UK. They are an excellent way to create subtle cosmetic changes and restore a youthful look.
Although dermal fillers are popular and effective, they are not without potential complications. If your filler treatment didn’t go as planned, or you are unhappy with the aesthetic result, correction is possible with dermal filler dissolving treatment.
Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are the most popular fillers used for facial rejuvenation. These fillers can be safely dissolved with a product called hyaluronidase.
What is Hyaluronidase?
Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that dissolves dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid. It works by breaking down the bonds that hold the hyaluronic acid molecules together.
Common Reasons for Dermal Filler Dissolving Treatment
- Lumps
Lumps can sometimes occur when the dermal filler does not spread evenly under the skin. The lips and under-eye are areas where lumps often appear. Lumps may resolve over time, but if they don’t, dermal filler dissolving treatment is an effective remedy. - Overfilling
Administering too much product into the targeted facial areas can lead to an exaggerated or unnatural appearance. - Filler Migration
This occurs when the filler moves from the treated area and spreads to other places. Filler migration can distort the results and lead to unwanted effects. - Asymmetry
Asymmetrical results can occur with dermal fillers if they are not distributed evenly, or improperly placed. - Allergic Reaction
Some patients may experience unexpected allergic reactions to dermal fillers.
Dermal Filler Dissolving Treatment
Dermal filler dissolving treatment is a quick, painless procedure that reverses dermal filler mistakes.
At Promed Clinic, our aesthetic practitioners administer hyaluronidase injections with precision and care to restore a natural appearance.
When hyaluronidase is injected into the targeted area, it rapidly breaks down the acid molecules of the dermal filler. The filler will eventually soften and dissolve. The treatment can be repeated if required.
Dermal filler dissolving treatment typically takes 30-45 minutes to complete. It can provide the reset you need to restore a natural appearance.
FAQ
Are There Any Side Effects?
You may experience some bruising at the injection points but this usually fades within a few days of treatment. Minor swelling may also occur. This typically resolves within 24-48 hours.
What Results Can You Expect?
Improvements can be seen after treatment but final results can take up to 2 weeks. When the filler is completely dissolved, the treated area will return to its pre-filler appearance. It is essential to follow the aftercare instructions we provide to ensure a smooth recovery.
