Follow-up Question: Corticoids injections to dissolve a HA filler (STYLAGE L) after a failed non surgical nose job ?

Question

I had 0.25 ml injected in the tip area and 0.2 ml in the columella and my doctor is considering corticoids to remove it before doing anything with hyaluronidase. He says that the corticoids injection will be successful. I really want to get rid of the filler as I am very unhappy with the non surgical nose job result but I am not sure about his treatment. Will It get rid of the filler ? What are the risks ? Please help. I just want to get back to my exact original nose without consequences :(

THank you for sharing your question.  The only reversal for a hyaluronic acid dermal filler is hyaluronidase.  This often goes by the name Vitrase or Hylenex.  I hope this helps.

Paul Carniol, MD · Answer

Typically, hyaluronidase is used to break down hyaluronic acid fillers.  It usually is effective.
  This can be injected through a small insulin type needle.  Although uncommon it is possible to develop an allergic reaction to hyaluronidase.  Considering this many physicians favor first doing an intradermal skin test before injecting it.

Dear Frenchy Thank you for your question.If you are correctly understanding and reporting what the doctor has said then I would not consider it and in fact find someone else who is competent.You must use hyalase and nothing else. It won't damage your nose if injected by someone good. Steroids could damage your nose permanently.Good luck Kind Regards Dr Dinesh Maini Zenith Cosmetic Clinics
