Dissolving lip filler can also dissolve my nasolabial folds?

Question

I would like to dissolve my old migrated lip filler (which migrated over the lip). I also got nasolabialfold filler (happy with it). Is it possible, to also dissolve the nasolabialfold filler by spreading the product? Both are very close together and I wouldn’t be happy if my filler in my nasolabialfd would be gone by dissolving my lip.

However you likely have been injected over the years with runny fillers. At fist these are often very satisfactory. However this filler drift in the face and over time (3-4 years) they begin to hold extra water. This material can migrate above the lip contributing unwanted fullness. The material can drift out of the lip and eventually contribute undesirable volume in the jaw line and actually cause a jowl. This material can and should be removed with hyaluronidase, the enzyme that breaks down the filler. You always want the least amount of filler that gets the job done.
