Filler dissolving

Filler dissolving starts with one question: what can be undone, and by what. Haute Living writes: "Sculptra and Radiesse cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase." A reader who knows which product was used can start from that line.

The first sensation and the wait

• The first sensation: Is dissolving filler painful?
• The wait: Hyaluronidase works how quickly on filler?

The lips and what comes next

• A small area: Dissolving fillers in the lips, how many visits?
• The next step: When can I get new filler after dissolving?

The product off the list, and the allergy

• The product that is not on the list: Can Sculptra or Radiesse be dissolved?
• The reaction to the dissolver itself: Does dissolving filler cause an allergic reaction?

Where the written record begins

Complications of dermal fillers are documented in a retrospective study of dermal injectable complications and in the demographics of patients with dermal filler complications, both on NCBI PMC. Overviews are also available from UCLA Health's page on non-invasive facial rejuvenation and from the dermal fillers page at ASDS.

A sign that does not settle on its own is the point to see a licensed professional.
