FILLER DISSOLVER
What is Filler Dissolver?
Injectable filler dissolver is a specialized enzyme, typically hyaluronidase, used to break down and dissolve hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. This enzyme works by rapidly degrading the hyaluronic acid in the filler, allowing the body to absorb and eliminate it naturally. Filler dissolvers are commonly used to correct overfilling, asymmetry, or lumps caused by previous filler treatments, providing a way to reverse undesired effects and restore a more natural appearance. The use of a filler dissolver can help achieve more precise and tailored results, ensuring patient satisfaction and safety in aesthetic treatments.

About the Procedure
The filler dissolver procedure involves carefully injecting an enzyme, typically hyaluronidase, into the area where the filler needs to be removed. The healthcare provider assesses the treatment area and administers the enzyme using a fine needle, ensuring precision and minimal discomfort. The injection process is relatively quick, often completed within a few minutes, and patients can typically resume their normal activities immediately afterward. The enzyme then works to break down the filler, with noticeable effects occurring within a few hours to a few days.

RESULTS
Full results of the filler dissolver procedure are typically seen within 24 to 48 hours, as the enzyme breaks down the unwanted filler and the body absorbs it. In some cases, it may take up to a week for the complete effects to become apparent.

Ice the Area: Use a cold compress to minimize swelling and discomfort.
Avoid Touching: Refrain from massaging or touching the treated area for at least 24 hours.

Procedure FAQ's
How many sessions are needed to dissolve the filler completely?
Most cases require only one session, but some instances of dense or deeply placed filler may need multiple treatments to achieve the desired result.
How soon can I get new filler after using a dissolver?
It is generally recommended to wait at least one to two weeks after dissolving filler before receiving new filler injections, allowing the area to fully settle and heal.
Is there a risk of the filler moving after dissolver injections?
The risk of filler migration is minimal since hyaluronidase quickly breaks down the filler, reducing its volume and preventing it from shifting.
