I had Juvederm injected in my laugh lines and under my eyes to fill out the hollows. It was too swollen and the doctor dissolved some of it with enzyme, but she did it unevenly, resulting in unnatural lumpiness and swelling that has still not decreased after 9 months! I am certain it is the product because I never had bags or swelling prior to this procedure. I also have lumps under my smile lines that now appear as jowls. Can these lumps still be dissolved by hyaluronidase injections?

Answer: Continue dissolving until desired look is reached Filler migration, swelling, and granulomas can cause significant discomfort and cosmetic ramifications. Our office specializes in the use of enzymes and filler reversal techniques without hyaluronidase to help improve the results of botched cosmetic fillers, whether caused by Juvederm, Restylane, or foreign fillers. Our plastic surgery institute provides expertise in filler removal. We begin by examining the facial fillers and assessing the likelihood of fluctuance or liquid volumization. If appropriate, we use Hylenex, or other filler reversal agents to reduce swelling and filler migration. Hylenex can be targeted into the areas of concern using multiple layered injection techniques. If the filler does not completely resolve, then additional concentrations may be employed. The technique has the potential to reduce the filler and may slightly impact normal hyaluronic acid. Treatments are repeated and results can improve immediately and with time. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Dissolving hyaluronidase months later It is more difficult to dissolve HA's months later since some collagen is often incorporated into the filler. While this is a good thing generally, it can make dissolving filler more difficult, particularly much later. Best Dr. Anil Shah

Answer: Hyaluronidase after nine months Thank you for your question and for sharing your photo. Sorry to hear that you're experience with injectables has not been ideal. I would recommend that you visit an experienced injector who is a plastic surgeon or dermatologist who has worked with Hyaluronidase in their practice. I have used Hyaluronidase in this region even years after an injection that has lingered around with some success.

Answer: Can hyaluronidase dissolve Juvederm months later? Yes--great news. Hyaluronidase can help even months later. Find an experienced aesthetic physician (oculoplastic, facial plastic/plastic surgeon, dermatology) that has a lot of experience with fillers and hyaluronidase. Good luck.
