Q: Why wouldn't hyaluronidase work for dissolving Juvederm?
A:
Hyaluronidase will dissolve any Juvederm present, if injected in correct amount. There is no known risk to your health. The two folds in the corner of your mouth appear to be folds, and not Juvederm; hence, hyaluronidase is not working. Another reason might be if there is scar tissue present. Good luck.
