ABOUT HYALURONIDASE (HYLENEX)

WHAT IT IS

Dissolving Filler with hyaluronidase (Hylenex) is an effective procedure used to correct overfilled or asymmetrical areas, lumps, bumps, or other complications resulting from hyaluronic acid-based filler injections. It can also be used to dissolve vascular occlusions caused by hyaluronic acid-based fillers in more emergent situations.

HOW IT WORKS

Hyaluronidase (Hylenex) is an enzyme that accelerates the natural degradation of hyaluronic acid, allowing for the reversal of hyaluronic acid-based filler injections and correction of undesirable outcomes. The enzyme works by breaking down the hyaluronic acid molecules, allowing the filler to be absorbed and metabolized by the body, restoring a more natural appearance.

WHAT TO EXPECT

During a filler dissolving procedure with hyaluronidase (Hylenex), a small amount of the enzyme solution is injected into the treatment area using a fine needle. The process is relatively quick and typically well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort. Patients may experience some swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection site immediately following the procedure but these side effects usually subside within a few days. You may start seeing results within 24 hours of treatment.

FAQs
