I had hyaluronidase injected to dissolve juvederm...

I had hyaluronidase injected to dissolve juvederm that was not good for my under eye area and causing puffiness and discolouration, without properly filling the tear troughs. Effects of the hyaluronidase were quite drastic. dissolved away a lot of my own HA i believe and left terrible grooves. not a great result so i had restylane injected within 48 hours to fill the grooves. resty has filled in the areas nicely but there is still some discolouration, perhaps bc my skin is now very thin from all of this an muscle is showing through the skin. hopefully that aspect will improve in time.

How long did you wait after the juvederm injections to receive the hyularaindaise?

things have settled a bit. but i would say that if you can live with your filler results, do that rather than get hyalase

I wish I had known the risks with hyaluronidase before I got it injected. I have terrible dark circles now. Does it get better with time or is this going to last forever?

Did your eyes get better? I'm two weeks post hyaluronidase and my eyes look so dang sunken and there are dark bags now that I've never had before. It definitely affected my own tissue; there are grooves where he placed the enzyme that are linear and about 2.5 inches long, and they traverse through both filler AND my native tissue.

No, they ever went back to the pre-hyaluronidase look. It permanently changed the landscape of my face. And keep in mind I never had filler under my eyes, so it was all my own natural tissue it dissolved. Very very ignorant of me to not research it before I let him use it. Duh, lol, dissolving native HA is what it was made to do.

I had filler in my cheeks placed 10 years ago, but never under my eyes. The dermatologist who injected the hyaluronidase said I might have had migrating filler still hanging around after 10 years, and that I should try hyaluronidase because it’ll only target the filler. I didn’t believe that was possible, so I questioned him multiple times about that, and then stupidly believed him. I just didn’t do my due diligence on research, and I didn’t follow my gut/common sense reaction that an enzyme created to destroy native HA would do just that.

well after dissolving all the juvederm and my own HA with hyalase to get rid of some puffiness and slight tyndall effect i now had restylane injected. the tyndall effect is still there - seems MUCH worse since the hyalase. in fact what I believe happened is the hyalase dissolves everything and leaves the skin so thin that the muscle shows through dramatically whatever filler you put under there. anyway, quite disillusioned and disappointed though hope this will settle in time
That is scary, I'm glad you shared this info so other people realize that this can happen.
