Hi, I had some injections done to my buttocks region about a year ago. I am not exactly sure what was injected but the injector said it was hyaluronic acid. I am not very happy with the result and would like to have this stuff removed. A physician recommended hyloranidase but he will not inject it unless he knows what the product really it. Is there any harm to have hyaluronidase injected if the product in my buttocks is not hyaluronic acid? What is the overdose amount for hyaluronidase?
Answer: Hyaluronidase injections for non-HA fillers Injecting this enzyme to areas where HA has not been injected can result in depressions in the skin and is not advisable. Why are you not happy? Are you having lumps or redness? If so, it might be highly advisable to have a biopsy to see what filler was used and what kind of reaction is occurring. Patients gave been injected in this area with adulterated filler, even oils that have no business being injected anywhere in the body, and have developed TB of the skin and other ptoblems. Please see a board-certified detmstologist or plastic surgeon for advice.

Answer: Hyaluronidase It is not recommended to inject your buttocks with hyaluronidase if you do not know what the original product is. You should go back to your original injector and confirm what the material was before proceeding with a treatment to resolve your concern. However, if it was indeed hyaluronic acid filler, then your body will naturally break it down so if you wait eventually the result will go away.

Answer: Can hyaluronidase be injected to try and remove filler if the filler is not hyaluronic acid? The concern is that hyaluronidase will only break down hyaluronic acid. If injected directly into deposits of hyaluronic acid at a reasonable dose, there is very little risk of removing your native hyaluronic acid. If alot of hyaluronidase is injected into an area that only contains your natural hyaluronic acid (no hyaluronic acid based filler) then there is a risk of creating a hollow or contour deformity. The same thing can happen when excess hyaluronidase is used in the face - it can remove some of your natural hyaluronic acid and create a hollow area. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
