Got 2ml of thin HA (particles .1-.15mm, 200k/ml) 8 days ago. I wanted it deep, but doctor insisted on under skin, scared of hitting an artery and blinding me. She put in 1.5 (via cannula/fern pattern) and it looked nice and flat, but still a little hollow. Adding 0.5 made it into this monstrosity. I really don’t want to do hyaluronidase; there are countless terrible side-effect (including necrosis) stories on realself et al, but nor do I want to look like a Star Trek character for a year.
Answer: Hyaluronidase for HA Reversal Hello. Hyaluronidase does not cause necrosis. It is a very simple enzyme that breaks down Hyaluronic acid based products like Restylane, Juvederm, Perlane, Belotero and Voluma. We have provided this procedure many times for patients that have been unhappy with injections at their other practices and have never had any side effects. The decision to have or not have Hyaluronidase is a very personal one based on how much you dislike the current injections.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Filler reversal can help your contour Longterm filler problems include migration, edema, and nodularity. Filler migration and permanence is a very common problem because there are many different types of HA fillers on the market and each is specified for a specific part of the face. Use of highly cohesive fillers on thin skin may cause swelling and nodularity. If patients have filler migration or nodules, we recommend a combination approach of filler reversal with enzymes Hylenex and Hyaluronidase in different strengths to dissolve the filler. We may also need to add Kenalog to the mix in order to reduce fibrous tissue. If the filler does not dissolve, it either means the filler is not HA material or we need more enzyme. The HA reversal can be combined with other lasers and skin treatments at the same time, and it usually (usually) does not affect adjacent tissue.

Answer: Filler Bumps on Temple This is likely swelling and clumping of the filler and can be reversed easily with hyaluronidase or evened out with saline injections. I suggest seeing a filler expert for treatment and it is often better to have deep temporal injections in this area to avoid this complication. Microcannulas in this area are a good option though since they limit bruising and swelling most of the time. Best, Dr. Emer.
