Can hyaluronic acid lip fillers be removed 3 days after injections due to unwanted results?

Thanks for your question. I would not suggest removal of the filler at this time. You're likely swollen and will get better pretty soon. If you're still unhappy at 3 weeks after your injection then you can dissolve the filler for sure.Good luck. Dr. ALDO 

Hi and thank you for your question! While we can use hyaluronidase at almost anytime following hyaluronic acid fillers to revise/remove them, I urge you not to do it right now and wait. Swelling is very common following filler injections and it is very likely that most issues you are experiencing now are related to the swelling and not the filler. Please allow up to 2 weeks for the swelling to completely go down and by then if there are any concerns left, do a follow up with your doctor and do the enzyme if needed. Rushing to do the enzyme when there is still active swelling is never a good idea since it is hard to tell which lump is filler and which one is swelling, and the additional injections will only make the swelling worse. There is also the risk of over-correction or more uneven results. It's almost always a bad idea to rush to remove filler within days following injection. If possible at all, please be patient and wait a few days and you will most likely thank yourself later. I hope it helps and good luck!

Yes Hyaluronic acid based fillers can be removed by injecting hyaluronidase if needed. It doesn’t matter when it was injected.
