I had hyaluronidase damage to my frontal cheeks after disliking filler injections. I read another persons question on this site who also had hyaluronidase damage and said that her tissues did not repair itself over time. she said that her doctor made a 6 week plan to get recurring saline injections to build collagen in that area and has shown improvement. Is this possible?

Answer: Saline injection Great question! Saline itself does not promote any collagen growth. The repeated trauma of injections could create some scar tissue but in the end it probably will not make much of a difference. You may need precise filler injections to fill in the indentation left from the hyaluronidase. Seek an experienced injector for an in person consultation to help you with your situation. Best of luck and hope this information helps! - Dr. Roger Tsai Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Can recurring saline solution injections build collagen? Unfortunately recurrent saline (salt water) injections may not lead to significant collagen formation. Consider re-asking your question with photos demonstrating the issue you see after hyaluronidase injections. If there are visible indentations, this may be improved, depending on your exam. Wishing you well. Dr Joseph
