Can hyaluronidase cause scarring? What can I do to return to my normal appearance? (photos)

Bright813187Mar 23, 2023
In 2019, I had my lips and chin overly filled with hyaluronic fillers. Despite receiving countless treatments with hyaluronidase, even with doses as high as 1500ie, I still look very different. I have undergone an ultrasound which did not detect any remaining filler. What can I do to return to my normal appearance?
