A good plastic surgeon injected Perlane into naso-labial and peri-oral folds. It formed balls around mouth and worms in folds. The Perlane also created rivulets on either side of the divet under nose. Two rounds of Vitrase were unsuccessful. What option do I have? Why is it remaining? Thanks!
My guess would be that scar tissue has formed around the nodules. You might want to try a dilute steroid injection to see if this shrinks the appearance of the Perlane and then try another round of Vitrase. It is very unusual that Perlane, which is a HA product, is not responding to the Hyaluronidase. Your next option is excising the nodules. Since this action may create more scar tissue it would be my last option.
hollowing in my cheeks and loads of lines...is restylane perlane best for this...or try something else? thanks for the help!
Perlane and Restylane are from the Medicis family of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) based fillers. The only difference is that Perlane contains a larger concentration of HA so it is more commonly used for the larger, deeper folds and areas that need large volumes such as the cheeks and jowls. Restylane is used for the smaller, more superficial wrinkles and lip enhancements.
