Vollure seeped into gum line - Can this be dissolved safely? (photo)

Asked By:hikerforlife in Fore Store, Virginia

Hello, Vollure seeped into my gum line when my injector was doing nasolabial folds. She did a different approach and when in deeper and straight down which caused seeping into my gum line above my right canine. The dentist did an X-ray and confirmed it’s not an infection or necrosis. It is a filler. My dentist said to leave it alone to prevent infection and let it dissolve on its own. My injector said she would like to dissolve it. Is it safe to use a dissolving agent into a gum?
