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: Elevess, now called Hydrelle, can be removed

Hi Square Chin,

Elevess is a hyalyuronic acid-based filler that can be removed in a similar fashion to other HA based fillers like Restylane and Juvederm with hyaluronidase. This is a relatively easy procedure but is most effective if performed soon after the procedure- as in the first few weeks. Allow the swelling which comes along with HA-based filler injections to subside before deciding whether or not you would like the product removed.

Best of luck!
