Fillers are a great boon for those seeking a facial makeover or upliftment. But what if you are not happy with the fillers you recently got? At Hortman Clinics, we have the perfect solution!
Are you anxious about getting your fillers dissolved? Here’s everything you need to know about filler dissolving!
Anyone who has previously had a facial filler can opt for a dissolving procedure.
You may be a candidate for filler dissolution if you:
A filler dissolving procedure may be required for the following reasons:
In a few cases, the filler injected into the face can migrate or spread from its original position. This can occur due to poor technique and knowledge of the doctor, use of incorrect products and frequent retreatments. Filler can migrate when excess product is used.
When done properly, a filler procedure is almost always successful. However, some individuals may develop bumps and lumps when the filler does not spread evenly under the skin. While this situation usually resolves itself, sometimes dissolving the filler is the only option available.
Getting fillers is as smooth as planning a holiday! However, sometimes you hit a roadblock. In some rare cases, people may develop intense pain, discolouration or other symptoms following a filler procedure. In these cases, a filler dissolution procedure may be required.
Fillers available today can be reversible and non-reversible.
The most popular filler-dissolving material is hyaluronidase. This is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid. When hyaluronidase is injected into the area of the filler material, it rapidly breaks down the filler and absorbs it for safe elimination from the body.
To get a filler dissolved, you will require:
- A consultation with our qualified aesthetician, who performs a physical evaluation of the site and understands your concerns or desired outcome
- If you are a candidate for filler dissolution, hyaluronidase is administered into the area.
- A follow-up appointment is advised to assess the results and determine if additional treatment is clinically indicated.
The procedure for filler removal involves the following:
To prepare for a filler dissolving process, you must avoid medications like aspirin and nutritional supplements that may interfere with healing. You must also stop smoking several weeks before the procedure, as it may disrupt healing.
Depending on the amount of filler in the facial area, dissolving a filler can take one to two sessions. The complete results can take one to two weeks to show. The amount of time taken for the result depends upon many factors, especially the type and brand of hyaluronidase used and the quantity of filler in the area.
If you are worried about the risks of getting a filler dissolved, you can leave it to the safest hands at Hortman Clinics.
Dissolving facial fillers is a relatively safe procedure and a quick fix to reverse any undesirable effects of dermal fillers. However, some people may experience mild to moderate side effects, such as:
- Allergic reaction
- Bruising
- Itching or redness in the area
- Tenderness
- Mild skin discolouration

The recovery following a filler dissolving procedure is usually uneventful. If you wish to redo your filler, you must wait atleast two weeks post the dissolving procedure. If you develop bruising, it may take around a week to dissolve. You do not require any downtime after the filler dissolving procedure. You can resume your daily activities immediately.
