Hi and thank you for your question! In theory, whenever we inject something into the body, it is possible to get some of it into blood stream but it is very rare and quite easy to avoid by pulling the plunger a bit right before pushing it to do the injection and other techniques that your physicians employ.

Generally when I use hyaluronidase I don’t dilute it with lidocaineane primarily because I want to put a concentrated amount of hyaluronidase and massage it in, because I can actually see the improvement right away. I don’t want lidocaine or other diluents I may use to give it a little swe...
