Is there anyway to dissolve Refyne and Defyne once it is injected into your face ?

Question

My Doctor injected Refyne and Defyne around my top lip now when I smile you can not see my teeth is there anyway to fix this? How long will this last in my system before it goes away ?

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

Refyne and Defyne are both types of hyaluronic acid fillers.  These types of filers can be dissolved by injection of a medication known as hyaluronidase.  I would speak to the physician who treated you to discuss this possibility.

Hi @pammy52. I'm sorry you are not happy with your results. The filler call be dissolved with Hyaluronidase. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for the question. Yes, the good news is that these fillers can be depolymerized (reversed or dissolved) with hyaluronidase.
As always, an in-person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training is the best way to assess your needs and provide medical advice.

Thank you for sharing your question. Yes, the fillers you mention ( Restylane products ) can be dissolved with hyaluronidase. Speak with your treating physician. Good luck,

Yes, if you're unhappy with your final results, you can have the filler reversed with hyaluronidase. It can take a series of treatments to dissolve fillers. Hope this helps.
