Is 4 vials of hyaluronidase too much?

justicia1980Nov 11, 2019
I had three syringes btw refyne, lyft and silk, under the eyes, malar and cheek areas, nasolabial folds, lower face , sides of my face. It is in multiple areas. Before that I had 1.5 syringes of refyne , which I liked. Tried to dissolve a three times with : twice w. two vials of hyaluronidase ( hylenex and vitrase) and once with a vial. I did not get much success. Went to see someone known to fix botched fillers. She suggested 4 vials bc it’s in multiple locations. Is it too much ?

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.
