Can an MRI scan of the face detect Hyaluronidase and the amount injected?

Question

Have had an MRI of the face to see how many mls of dermal filler I still have left and was interested to know if Hyaluronidase or your own H/A can also appear on the MRI scan.

Glenn Messina, MD · Answer

The residual fillers will be seen on the MRI however hyaluronidase is a liquid that dissolves HA and will not be seen on the MRI. The natural hyaluronic acid will not be detected

MRI can detect the location of filler- both depth and width. Appears as whitish areas on the MRI. No investigation method to detect the actual mls left, just the location. Normal HA will not be seen on the MRI. Prof Goodman or Dr Phil Bekhor in Melbourne can assist you if you need interoperation - clinical -radiological correlation. Dr Davin S. Lim, Brisbane.
