The Solution to Undesired Results


It’s not uncommon for patients to seek our expertise after receiving unsatisfactory results elsewhere. Issues such as excessive filler, undesirable “duck lips,” or noticeable lumps can occur when treatments are improperly administered. Fortunately, these effects are reversible. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be effectively dissolved using a specialized enzyme, Hyaluronidase, which we administer with precision. Depending on the type and extent of the filler used, the process may require multiple sessions. It is important to note that permanent fillers cannot be dissolved, highlighting the necessity of knowing the specifics of the filler used in your previous treatments.

What to Expect During Lip Filler Dissolving Treatment


During your initial consultation, Dr. Shternfeld conducts a thorough evaluation to determine the best approach for your specific situation. To enhance your comfort, a topical numbing cream is applied prior to the procedure. Depending on the areas treated, techniques such as fine needles, cannulas, or ultrasound may be utilized to achieve optimal results. Treatments can range from full lip dissolving to targeted spot treatments, tailored to achieve the most natural and satisfying outcome.

Aftercare and Recovery


Post-procedure, it is common to experience mild to moderate swelling and some bruising—both of which are normal responses and should resolve within two weeks. While allergic reactions to Hylenex are rare, they are swiftly managed should they occur. After the initial recovery period, you may opt to enhance your lips with fillers again, designed to perfectly suit your aesthetic goals.
