For individuals considering dermal fillers, the question of reversibility is a common concern. The good news is that hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, one of the most popular types of cosmetic injectables, can be safely and effectively dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This provides an added layer of reassurance for patients who may be hesitant about filler treatments or concerned about overcorrection, asymmetry, or results that don’t meet expectations.
At Epione, world-renowned cosmetic expert Dr. Simon Ourian prioritizes both natural-looking enhancement and patient confidence. While his meticulous planning and advanced injection techniques minimize the need for correction, the availability of hyaluronidase treatment ensures that adjustments can be made quickly, safely, and precisely. This ability to reverse or refine results adds a level of flexibility rarely available in high-end aesthetic care.
How Filler Dissolution Works
Hyaluronidase is an enzyme specifically designed to break down hyaluronic acid. When injected into the area with excess or undesired filler, the enzyme accelerates the body’s natural absorption process, gradually restoring the treated area to its previous state. Patients typically notice improvement within 24 to 48 hours, with complete results visible in a few days. This makes filler reversal an effective solution for:
- Overfilled lips, cheeks, or jawline
- Asymmetry or uneven contouring
- Patient dissatisfaction with volume or placement
- Rare complications or unintended outcomes
Planning and Expertise Matter
Although fillers can be dissolved, the ideal approach is prevention through precise planning and expert technique. Dr. Ourian evaluates each patient’s facial anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals before treatment. By understanding the nuances of facial structure and filler behavior, he minimizes the likelihood of overfilling or uneven results. In the rare cases where adjustments are necessary, his skill ensures that any corrections with hyaluronidase are subtle, controlled, and harmonious with the patient’s natural features.
