Dissolving lip fillers is a popular procedure for those who want to restore their natural look or simply want to remove their lip fillers. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are the only type of filler recommended for use on the lips, and they dissolve naturally over a period of 6 to 18 months. However, if you want to dissolve your lip fillers faster, you can inject hyaluronidase directly into the lips, which will break down the filler in three or four days. Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that occurs naturally in the body and is responsible for breaking down hyaluronic acid dermal fillers over time.
By injecting a high concentration of this substance into the lips, the filler is allowed to break down more quickly and is eliminated by the body's own systems. At Dr. Nyla's clinic, we offer lip filler dissolution treatments that work to break down dermal filler safely and comfortably. We can completely dissolve or “sculpt backwards” by dissolving only part of the fill and outline in the process.
We also advocate for greater safety in the aesthetic industry and work with other professionals to help treat conditions in patients that have been caused by filling complications. If you're considering dissolving your lip fillers, it's important to turn to a trained medical professional to perform your procedure. As with any treatment that includes needle sticks and insertion of any substance, dissolving lip fillers is not without potential risks and side effects. Some injectors prefer to wait a few weeks after the dissolved filler has completely dissipated before re-injecting, but if refilling is simple, Dr. Nyla can do it right away. If your motivation for dissolving lip filler is that you don't like the way it looks, you may have other options, depending on your concerns.
For example, if migration occurs and the dermal filler is in the wrong compartment, if your lips, this may take several months or years to degrade sufficiently to allow a clear lip border to be seen again. In some cases, you may only want to dissolve a buildup of filler or a lump, rather than the entire fill, which is also possible. At Dr. Nyla's clinic, we understand that every lip enhancement is different and requires patience when it comes to reviewing results. We have the knowledge and experience to apply soluble lip fillers with precision and care so that you can achieve your desired look without any complications.
