Is it normal to not see hyaluronidase work instantly to remove some filler in the nose? Does it sometimes take longer?

I've had hyaluronidase 2 weeks ago to remove some excess filler (perlane) on the side of my nose which was causing a little lump. Most of it was gone an I saw the results almost instantly after the injection an couldn't feel the lumpiness as prominently. However a tiny bit of filler remained so I went to get this dissolved today, it's been 12 hours an the area looks exactly the same an I can still feel the filler there. Is this normal? Will it definitely go? I'm not sure if it worked or not.
