There is no Restylane in those lumps

Kevin Ende, MD answers: How to remove lumps from Restylane and New Fill?

I had Restylane injected on my cheeks 4 yrs ago. I still have hard large lumps; I don't know if its possible to squeeze it out, or cut it out. It can be reached from inside the mouth.

What are the consequences? Do you have a better solution? I also have lumps on lips caused by New-Fill. Thanks.

It is not possible that the lumps in your cheeks have any remaining Restylane. Typically, hyaluronidase is used to dissolve Restylane, but I would not recommend this in you. You need an evaluation by an experienced surgeon.
