I want to remove Juvederm fillers in my nose. Is it safe to remove it surgically?

Question

I want to remove Juvederm fillers in my nose. My plastic surgery doctor told me he will remove it the surgical way. Is that safe? I had the fillers for about a year.

Martin Jugenburg, MD · Answer

The Juvederm will dissolve over time. Ensure you have a good understanding of the procedure and that you are making an informed decision. Best,

Michael Constantin Gartner, DO · Answer

Juvederm does not need to be removed surgically. It can be dissolved with hyaluronidase or it will go away on its own with time. If your surgeon said that it can be removed surgically, then chances are it's probably not Juvederm.

Juvederm will fade over time in the nose. It makes sense to let time work for you rather than to risk surgery.

John Louis Ratz, MD · Answer

Juvederm will eventually be gone. The safest and most cost effective thing to do is to let time do the work for you. Surgery is not fool proof. If it's carried out under local anestheia, the safety factor is better than if it were done under general anesthesia as general anesthesia carries its own risks. My advise to you is to just wait.           jlr
