Is there an alternative to hyaluronidase for dissolving hyaluronic acid under-eye filler?

December 24, 2020
Asked By:Cecillion in Sanger, California

I am 39 years old female and I have 5-year-old hyaluronic acid under-eye fillers which I want to get rid of. I am afraid of hyaluronidase so is there any alternative for dissolving this filler? I read somewhere that as a side effect of RF micro-needling treatment, hyaluronic acid dissolves. So can we use RF treatments to dissolve the filler? If so, will it cause the fat layer to melt as well? Thank you in advance!
