Will Hyaluronidase Correct an Uneven Lip Augmentation Result?
March 13, 2008
Asked By:
I have recently had half a syringe of Hydrafill with a bad result - the product has collected in the wrong part of the lip and it's uneven. If I was to use hyaluronidase to correct an uneven result I have had recently with Hydrafill, would it dissolve all product in the mouth or would you be able to inject a tiny amount into certain areas without it spreading? I have been having injections for 10 years and am happy with the size of my lips, so I'm worried it will completely dissolve the Hydrafill and I will have to start from scratch. Thanks for any help.

I prefer fat grafting for these kinds of generalized depressions. We take some of your own fat and inject it into the defect. It may take a repeated session at 4-6 months. Most patients like the idea of using their own fat.
