Which is Best, Ultherapy Vs Hyaluronidase, at Removing Restylane Under Eyes?

Hi. I want to remove restylane from under my eyes. I am considering trying ultherapy first and then assessing the need for hyaluronidase. I believe ultherapy to be the safer but expensive option (and also maybe less likely to work) but im not fussed about cost vs safety.  I would appreciate any professional advice/opinions regarding my planned approach. Many thanks.

A: How to remove Restylane

Restylane is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler.  The way to remove it is to inject hyaluronidase, an enzyme that digests hyaluronic acid, into the area where Restylane was injected.

Ultherapy does not do that.

Hyaluronidase to Dissolve Restylane on my Nose?

Recently I had restylane injected to my nose for about 0.5 cc and I extremely hate it. I don't want anything but having the old one back. I really miss it. Would it be okay to my nose if I do the hyaluronidase thing? I have heard about it but not sure. Can anyone please help clarify the work of hyaluronidase thing to me and some effects that I might get? I'd kill for this to be over. thank you.

A: Hyaluronidase dissolves hyaluronic acid dermal fillers

Restylane, Juvederm and Perlane are all hyaluronic acid dermal fillers.  Hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve the injected filler and return your skin to its previous structure.
