Can I partially dissolve cheek filler?

H
Humorous376845Jul 11, 2023

I have restalyne filler in my cheeks, I initially got 0.5 in each side in February, then added .25 to each side in March. I was happy with it, but I ended up getting another .25 on each side in June. I feel that there is too much now, it makes my face look more gaunt a nd tired. I was wondering if it is possible to dissolve some but not all of my filler? Or any other way to make the filler go down?

Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Countour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
