Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are the only ones that can be dissolved. Fortunately, many popular dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid, including Restylane and Juvéderm. They will break down rapidly when exposed to injections of an enzyme called hyaluronidase (Hylenex). If you are unwilling to have the filler dissolved, you can always rest assured that it will dissolve eventually on its own from anywhere from 6-18 months depending on the formulation. Best, Dr. Emer
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, I would normally suggest waiting a few weeks for any swelling to resolve before dissolving a filler
Yes, there is a medication called hyaluronidase that can be injected to dissolve Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm or Bolotero. This medication is available, but should not be used very often. I would recommend waiting at least 2 weeks for all the swelling to go down before considering the hyaluronidase injection.
Yes, syringed based fillers such as Restylane, Juvederm, and Belotero can all be reversed or "dissolved' with a product called Vitrase or Hylenex. The fillers mentioned above are part of a class of injectable products known as Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. Vitrase and Hylenex is a liquid that can be injected where the fillers were placed and dissolved rather quickly. Most patients see results within hours with further improvement in 1-2 days. It is difficult to control how much filler will be dissolved, so trying to reduce the amount of product in the area by 10%, 30% or 50%, for example, is very difficult to do or predict. I hope this helps.
Yes, absolutely. Hyaluronidase (a.k.a. Vitrase or Wydase) is an enzyme that dissolves hyaluronic acid (HA). This works on Restylane and all the other HA fillers (Juvederm, Perlane, Belotero, Voluma). As others have mentioned, however, the dosing is inexact. This should not be used a "sculpting" technique but rather as a rescue option in cases where the filler has caused a complication or you truly dislike the results.
The enzyme hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve any excess Restylane that is present. I would recommend choosing a board certified and experienced physician to perform these injections. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
Restylane can be reversed with hyaluronidase, which will break down the hyaluronic acid fillers within a few days. Some other fillers that can be dissolved with hyaluronidase are Juvederm, Voluma, and Perlane
It ispossible to reverse Restylane and all Hyaluronic Acid based fillers.HyaluronicAcid (HA) naturally occurs in our bodies; it is in our skin and cushions ourjoints. Cosmetically, it is the main ingredient in many injectable fillers suchas Juvederm and Restylane. HA can hold hundreds of times its weight in watermaking it preferred for filling lines and depressions.If you havehad too much injected or you have a lump or bump there is a Hyaluronic Acidantidote called hyaluronidaise. It is bestto return to your Board Certified Dermatologist and have them evaluate yourfiller, it may just be swelling. Let your physician decide if you need itinjected or if you should give your filler more time for the swelling to godown.
Restylane is in fact reversible.A special enzyme called hyaluronidase can be injected into the treatment area.This enzyme immediately dissolves hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane,JUVÉDERM®, and Perlane®. Additionally, the overall effects of dermal fillersare temporary as they are naturally reabsorbed by the body over the course of afew months.Contouring facial features withfillers requires a delicate touch, artistic sensibilities, and the medicalknowledge of a facial specialist.

An enzyme called hyaluronidase can be used tocorrect "overfill" of hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane. Oncehyaluronidase is injected into the targeted areas, it goes to work dissolvingthe filler over the course of a few days. For the best results, be sure to seea practitioner who is experienced with this particular procedure. Good luck!
Restylane can be removed with hyaluronidase. I always use minimum amounts, especially if I didn't do the original injections but am trying to fix someone else's work. Dents will occur if too much is injected, or it's injected into an area where there isn't Restylane because the product can...
Restylane typically lasts between 6 and 9 months in a given area. If you are feeling the need for more frequent injections perhaps you want to look into Sculptra or one of the longer-lasting injections. No two people absorb Restylane at the same rate. I would be more concerned that you are sa...
Restylane is a wonderful facial filler and I use it every day with my patients. Without a photo it is impossible to know what the "golf ball" means but it does not sound normal. It could be from too much filler or improper placement or infection. Please return to your treating physician fo...
