Had Hyalase 3 times for lip filler lumps - can they be permanent?

Question

I have made filler in my lips a year ago. I got many lumps after that filler appointment. I went back to the clinic and put hyalase. Some of the lumps went away. After months I discovered 3 lumps in my upper lip that is located deep in the lip. I went and got full hyalase in them. But they didn’t go away. I have put hyalase in them 3 times but ye the are still there and still the same size. What can I do? Can fillers lumps stay parmanent? I’m starting overthinking that they may be some tumor

Hello ! It's worth noting that the position of the filler plays a crucial role in determining its solubility. When the filler is located farther from the direct blood supply than other areas, the cells that produce hyaluronidase will not be able to access the hyaluronic acid gel, resulting in its inability to dissolve. Also, hyaluronic acid is utilized for both medical and cosmetic purposes, and is processed to increase its shelf life and form a hydrogel suitable for injection into the body. The alterations made to the hyaluronic acid prior to injection can influence its solubility and make it harder to dissolve as well. It can be removed surgically.

Best of luck !
