How to dissolve old filler safely?

Question

Hi I got some under eye filler about 6 years ago and it’s still there. As I age, it s little off in some lighting. I would like to do something about it but have heard horror stories about hyaluronidase/hyalase and wouldn’t feel comfortable taking the risk with it. What are other options? Is it true that Morpheus 8 can help with that, or something else?

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

Morpheus will not help dissolve the filler, but instead it will dissolve some of your own fat which you need ,to look as young as possible. You need to find out what type of filler was used to begin with. And if it’s a hyaluronic acid filler then yes, you can have it gently dissolved in one or two sessions with a small amount of Hyaluronidase. if there is lack of volume seen afterwards, I would consider fat grafting which should produce natural and permanent results in the right hands. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery.
