Which filler breaks down the easiest?

Question

Would you say RHA fillers or restylane are easier for the body to metabolize since they are less cross linked? Are they less likely to have migration problems or delayed reactions?

Karlee Heffner, NMD · Answer

Hello! Certain brands have shown to be "easier" to dissolve when placed on a dish and dissolver is applied. The way brands of dermal filler are crosslinked may correlate with ease of dissolving or how they stay in the body. However, in 18 years of practice, I do not find one filler migrates more than another. Also, it really can be dependent on the person how dissolving works on the same product for each patient. Talk to your provider about the safety aspects, as migration is often due to poor technique and other issues that can be avoided--not necessarily the product itself.
