Filler Dissolving

An enzyme treatment that dissolves hyaluronic acid filler to correct or reverse a previous result.

What it is

Filler dissolving uses an enzyme, hyaluronidase, that breaks down hyaluronic acid filler. It is used to correct lumps, overfilling, or an unwanted result from previous filler, to restore a more natural look, or as an urgent treatment in the rare event of a filler-related complication.

The enzyme is injected into the area, and the filler typically breaks down within days. It only affects hyaluronic acid filler, and because it can also temporarily affect the skin's natural hyaluronic acid, it is used precisely and conservatively.

What it can address

  • Lumps, unevenness, or overfilling from previous filler
  • An unwanted or unnatural filler result
  • Filler that has migrated from its intended position
  • Urgent reversal in the rare event of a vascular complication

It only dissolves hyaluronic acid filler and does not affect other types of filler or your own tissue permanently. It cannot undo surgical changes.

Quick facts

  • Treatment time: 15–30 minutes
  • Sessions: 1, occasionally repeated
  • Anesthesia: Topical numbing if needed
  • Downtime: Minimal, some swelling
  • Results visible: Within a few days
  • Results last: Permanent for the dissolved filler

Before the procedure

The area and the type of previous filler are assessed where known. Because allergic reactions are possible, your history is reviewed and, where appropriate, a small test is considered before treatment.

During the procedure

The enzyme is injected precisely into the area to be treated. More than one session is occasionally needed for firm or long-standing filler.

After the procedure

Swelling and redness are common and settle within days as the filler breaks down. The treated area may look flatter than expected at first while swelling resolves. New filler, if wanted, is usually deferred until the area has settled.

Results: what it can and cannot achieve

Reduction or removal of unwanted hyaluronic acid filler is achievable, often within days. It cannot dissolve non-hyaluronic acid products, may temporarily affect natural hydration, and occasionally needs repeating. Your clinician explains what to expect.

Possible risks and complications

Filler dissolving is generally safe in trained hands, but it carries some risks. Possible risks include:

  • Swelling, redness, or bruising
  • Temporary loss of the skin's natural hyaluronic acid in the area
  • Allergic reaction, including, rarely, a serious reaction
  • Incomplete dissolving requiring a repeat
  • Loss of desired volume if used to reverse a wanted result

Because allergic reactions are possible, this treatment is performed where a reaction can be recognized and managed. It is avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

The best surgeon

I had a circumferential abdominoplasty with Matteo Amoroso, and I can honestly say I couldn't have wished for a better surgeon. From the moment I met Matteo, I felt the sense of security I was looking for. He was kind, attentive, and professional from the very beginning. He took the time to explain everything in detail and answered all my questions, which made me feel well-informed before the surgery. I never had to go home and wonder about anything because he was so thorough in his explanations. It's now been three weeks since my surgery, and even though the healing process is still ongoing, I'm already incredibly happy with the result. The change is greater than I had dared to hope for, and I feel so grateful that I chose Matteo. I have more surgeries I want to undergo in the future, and there's no doubt that Matteo will be my first choice then too. I warmly recommend him to anyone considering plastic surgery!

A pro

I've had two surgeries with Matteo. The first was liposuction on my stomach, and most recently, my eyes – specifically, my lower eyelids and eyebrows. Matteo suggested a unique technique for my eyebrows that no other surgeon had proposed. This allowed me to remove excess skin under my eyebrows without needing an eyebrow or forehead lift, which I wasn't interested in. I'm extremely happy with the results of both my procedures. Matteo is a true professional; he loves his work, and you're always met with kindness and genuine care. He's an excellent communicator, explaining everything clearly and answering all questions and concerns. You feel completely confident in his knowledge and experience. Matteo also has a wonderful ability to make you feel understood; he listens carefully and is just as dedicated and invested as you are in achieving a successful procedure and outcome. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Matteo. I've had surgery 6 times in total, with the last two being with him. Whatever my next procedure may be, I will undoubtedly choose Matteo first again.

The best surgeon

Matteo is an incredibly skilled surgeon whom I highly recommend. I underwent a major tummy tuck, and from the very first consultation, Matteo was professional, calm, and very accessible. He took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel secure, involved, and well-informed throughout the entire process. He thoroughly explained the procedure, recovery, and what results I could expect, which gave me great confidence going into the surgery. Everything went very well without any complications, and I am very happy with the result. I would undoubtedly choose Matteo again if I were to have more procedures in the future.

The best choice for a plastic surgeon!

Dr. Amoroso has performed several operations on me, including a neck and facelift with fat grafting, a lip lift, eyelid surgery, breast and tummy tucks, and liposuction on my knees. All operations have been successful and exceeded my expectations. I have worked with doctors for 50 years and am very impressed by Dr. Amoroso's artistry and skill. He is truly an asset to this profession and to patients who desire excellent results and the peace of mind that comes from being cared for in a responsible and professional manner.

Successful 360 lipo

Matteo is the best surgeon I could ever imagine. I am beyond satisfied. Both the care I received and the results of the 360 liposuction Matteo performed on me have been absolutely fantastic. It couldn't have been better! Everything has exceeded my expectations. Matteo is professional, skilled, competent, caring, reassuring, and experienced. Thank you, Matteo!
