Can Kenalog shot be used to dissolve scar tissue from lip fillers? (photo)

Thank you for your photo and question. There are a few things that need to be noted before this is recommended. What type of filler was used when your lips were injected, and how soon after receiving the filler did it get dissolved?  If it is scar tissue then Kenelog would be worth trying, however, I suggest you visit an experienced injector who specializes in corrections. Best of luck-

yes , a kenalog/5FU injecion series would do the trick but may need to be done a few times lightly for best results and is quick to get done.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and I am sorry to hear of your lip filler difficulties.  I would seek out a filler specialist to assess your lips.  If this is scar tissue kenalog may prove useful to help with the healing process while if it feels like continued filler, I would inject more dissolving agent to restore your previous lip appearance. 

Thank you for your question.  It is unfortunate that you have had these issues with your lip filler treatment.  If the filler was done years ago and has since been dissolved, scar tissue may be the issue.  It’s difficult to tell from pictures alone.  Steroid injections like Kenelog can soften scars but may not be the perfect solution. I recommend a physical exam with a reputable surgeon to assess the situation and determine if steroid injections are the best solution for you.

If this is infact scarring then Kenalog injections may help. However, first any remaining filler should be removed. If an HA filler was used, it could be dissolved using hyaluronidase.
