I wanted to know should hyaluronidase always work for Restylane?

Question

Is it vital for hyalaurondase to be fresh for it to work....ie kept in fridge?

Jonathan Kulbersh, MD · Answer

Hyaluronidase can work to dissolve filler. It sometimes takes a series of treatments to dissolve filler. I hope this helps.

Monika Soni, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. Yes, hyaluronidase will work to dissolve Restylane, however it may require a series of treatments to ensure all the filler is dissolved. Also, hyaluronidase does need to be refrigerated. I recommend having a follow up with your injector to address any concerns you may have. Best of Luck!

Thank you for your question,
Hyaluronidase breaks down the enzymes of hyaluronic acid, and since Restylane is made up of hyaluronic acid, it should work well. Hyaluronidase should be refrigerated for optimal results. Best of luck.

Benjamin Barankin, MD, FRCPC · Answer

Hyaluronidase should work nicely to dissolve some or all of the restylane (hyaluronic acid) filler. Sometimes more than 1 treatment is needed, and the volume and the concentration of hyaluronidase that's injected is important too, so you really want only an expert physician such as a dermatologist doing this for you. While we typically keep ours in the fridge, it can be kept out of the fridge. It shouldn't be expired, but it needn't be "fresh" either.

Thank you for sharing your question. Yes, Hyaluronidase
should dissolve Restylane, however it may require a series of treatments with
hyaluronidase in order to ensure that all filler has been dissolved. To answer
your second question, hyaluronidase must be refrigerated for storage and
efficacy. For more information, I recommend following up with your injector to discuss
any other questions you may have regarding hyaluronidase. Best, Dr. Griffiths.
