Will hyaluronidase injections dissolve the Juvederm after 3 years?

Juvederm can last three years under the eyes.  Hyaluronidase can be injected to dissolve product. Good luck

In general, Juvederm lasts for 6-8 months on average. It is unlikely there is any Juvederm left after 3 years, which is what your physician may have been speaking of. It is difficult to provide advice without seeing photos or performing an exam. I would recommend following up with your physician, as he/she will be able to advise you after seeing you in person. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck. 

The issue that your injector brought up is not that Juvederm can't be dissolved after three years. I think their concern was that the Juvederm is long dissolved and that hyaluronidase won't make much of a difference. It's worth a shot and I'll usually treat people conservatively with hyaluronidase even a couple of years following filler treatments at another office. There is very little risk and a reasonable chance that things will improve following hyaluronidase treatment. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

HiHyaluronidase has been reported to dissolve HA fillers even several years after they have been placed.  And yes, there are also reports of the fillers lasting for several years. Fortunately, hyaluronidase is very safe, and so there is little to lose in attempting to dissolve it if it is actually still there. Reportedly, Juvederm is a little tougher to dissolve than testy lane. Gooduck!

Hi Paris.  We are guessing the reason that the plastic surgeon said that it might not dissolve is that there should be no Juvederm left after 3 years.  Hyaluronic acid based products like Restylane, Juvederm and Perlane are usually metabolized by the body in less than 12 months so there should be none left at this point.  We are guessing that the bumps or pillows you are speaking about are just your own skin and tissue.
