Fillers and Restoring Desired Facial Appearance?

Question

Over the years, I've had multiple rounds of fillers for my face. Initially, tear trough fillers with slight enhancement of my cheekbones. Later, another injector suggested undoing previous filler placements without knowing my full history.To balance my face, I added or dissolved fillers. Sadly, it aged me with saggy cheeks and a wider appearance. I'm depressed and uncomfortable.I need guidance to reverse these changes and regain my desired look. Please advise on addressing this issue.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

I encourage you to visit with an experienced injector to discuss your specific concerns.  Patients often find the best results using a combination of treatments.   Botox can be used to address dynamic lines and wrinkles.  Fillers can be used to improve hollowness and define facial contours.  In addition you can add treatments such as Morpheus8 to improve overall skin tone and texture.  We also recommend using medical grade skin care products and wearing sunscreen every day.

Hyaluronic acid fillers can be reversed with a special enzyme called Hyalase or hyaluronidase. Injecting this enzyme works to dissolve hyaluronic acid particles. It is only useful in dissolving hyaluronic acid-based fillers.

whatarethechances you are experiencing a common outcome after long term filler use and hyaluronidase use. Biochemically your skin and soft tissues are out of balance. Over those same years that you have been using fillers your skin has aged as it normally would, but this hasn’t been as obvious to you. Allow your skin and soft tissues time to get back into balance so no more fillers and get on a good skin care regimen.
