Filler Dissolve In Irvine, CA

If you're unhappy with the results of past filler treatment — whether it's overfilled lips, lumps, migration, or asymmetry — our Filler Dissolve treatment offers a safe and effective solution. Using hyaluronidase, a naturally occurring enzyme, we can selectively break down and remove hyaluronic acid-based filler to restore a more natural appearance.

What is filler dissolve and how does it work?

Filler dissolving is a non-surgical procedure that uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid (HA) — the main ingredient in most dermal fillers. When injected into the treatment area, it rapidly dissolves unwanted or misplaced filler, correcting asymmetry, lumps, migration, or an overfilled appearance. Results are visible within hours to a few days.

What types of issues can be treated with filler dissolving?

• Lip filler migration or puffiness

• Lumps or nodules from previous filler

• Overfilled cheeks, jawline, or under-eyes

• Poor placement from past treatments

• Filler complications such as vascular compromise (emergency treatment)

What can I expect during the procedure?

We begin with a consultation and assessment of the area to determine if dissolving is appropriate. A small amount of hyaluronidase is injected into the filler site. The procedure takes about 15–30 minutes and includes a patch test if needed to rule out allergic reaction. Most patients feel a mild stinging or swelling sensation.

What is the recovery and downtime?

You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising for 1–3 days. The filler often begins to break down within hours, with full effects visible in 24–72 hours. In some cases, a second session may be needed for complete correction

When will I see results, and how long do they last?

Most patients see softening of the filler within the first 24 hours. Final results are usually seen by day 2 or 3. Once dissolved, the area returns to its pre-filler state. You may choose to wait 1–2 weeks before re-treating with fresh filler.
