Strategic Dermal Filler Reversal

As aesthetic trends evolve, many patients are choosing to move away from overfilled or unnatural results. Others may be experiencing asymmetry, heaviness, or dissatisfaction following previous dermal filler treatments—whether performed recently or years ago. Filler dissolving is a non-surgical treatment that uses hyaluronidase (Hylenex) to safely and precisely break down hyaluronic acid–based dermal fillers. This allows patients to soften, adjust, or completely reverse filler results and, in many cases, start fresh with a more natural approach. At Corrado Skincare & Aesthetics, filler dissolving is approached with care, restraint, and expertise, ensuring facial balance is preserved throughout the correction process.

What Is Filler Dissolving?

Filler dissolving is a corrective injectable treatment that uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid fillers. Hylenex® is an FDA-approved brand of hyaluronidase commonly used in aesthetic medicine.

This treatment allows providers to:

  • Reduce excess filler
  • Correct asymmetry or irregularities
  • Address migration or puffiness
  • Fully dissolve filler when needed

Because only hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved, this treatment is specific to patients who have received HA-based dermal fillers.

Why Patients Choose Filler Dissolving

Patients seek filler dissolving for many reasons, including:

  • Overfilled or unnatural appearance
  • Filler migration or puffiness
  • Asymmetry or uneven results
  • Changes in aesthetic preference
  • Poor results from previous treatment
  • Desire to “reset” and start over

The current trend toward more natural, refined aesthetics has made filler dissolving an increasingly common and empowering choice.

How Filler Dissolving Works

Hyaluronidase is injected into targeted areas where unwanted filler is present. The enzyme works by breaking down hyaluronic acid, allowing the body to naturally absorb and eliminate it.

Treatment can be:

  • Partial, to soften or refine results
  • Targeted, to correct specific areas
  • Complete, to dissolve all filler and reset facial volume

The approach is customized based on your anatomy, goals, and existing filler placement.

What Areas Can Be Treated

Filler dissolving may be used in areas such as:

  • Lips
  • Under-eyes and tear troughs
  • Cheeks and midface
  • Jawline
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines

Careful evaluation is essential, especially in delicate areas like the under-eyes.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for filler dissolving if you:

  • Are unhappy with previous filler results
  • Feel your face looks overfilled or heavy
  • Have filler migration or asymmetry
  • Want to fully dissolve fillers and start over
  • Have hyaluronic acid–based fillers
  • Are in good overall health

A thorough consultation is critical to determine what filler is present, where it is located, and how best to proceed.

What to Expect During Treatment

Filler dissolving appointments are precise and carefully planned:

  • Detailed facial assessment
  • Review of prior filler history (if available)
  • Strategic injection of hyaluronidase
  • Observation and follow-up planning

Treatment typically takes 15–30 minutes. Mild swelling or tenderness may occur temporarily.

Results & Timeline

  • Breakdown of filler often begins within 24–48 hours
  • Full effects are typically visible within 3–7 days
  • Some patients require more than one session
  • Re-filling, if desired, is typically delayed to allow tissues to stabilize

Results depend on the amount and location of filler being dissolved.

Recovery & Safety

  • Minimal downtime
  • Temporary swelling, redness, or tenderness may occur
  • Hyaluronidase has a strong safety profile when used properly
  • Rare allergic reactions can occur and are screened for during consultation

Expert technique is essential to avoid overcorrection or unintended volume loss.

Filler Dissolving FAQs

Will dissolving filler damage my skin?

No. When performed correctly, hyaluronidase safely breaks down filler without harming skin or tissue.

Can all fillers be dissolved?

Only hyaluronic acid–based fillers can be dissolved.

Will my face look worse after dissolving filler?

Our goal is balance and natural structure. Some patients prefer to reintroduce subtle volume after dissolution.

Can I get filler again after dissolving?

Yes. Many patients dissolve fillers to reset before re-treatment with a more conservative approach.
