Can Elevess Be Removed?

I had Elevess injected into my chin to make it less pointy. I don't really like the effect and there's a lot of filler in my face that pulls on my lips. Is there anything that can be done to remove it?

A: Yes, it can be removed

Elevess is a hyaluronic acid(HA) based filler. Like other HA based fillers, it can be removed by having your physician inject hyaluronidase into the area. Depending on when you had the Elevess injected, you make still be experiencing some swelling, which could be contributing to the pulldown that you don't like. I would wait at least 1-2 weeks if swelling is a factor, but your doctor can help determine that.

Take care,
