Filler Dissolver
WHAT IS FILLER DISSOLVER?
- From $500
- 1 hr
A filler dissolver treatment uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid (HA) filler. It is used to correct overfilled areas, migrated filler, lumps, asymmetry, or unsatisfactory cosmetic results. The enzyme works quickly, often dissolving filler within minutes to hours, allowing facial features to return to a more natural, balanced appearance. This treatment is also used when filler complications occur, such as vascular occlusion or persistent swelling. Often involved ultrasound and done by Dr. Le.
Common Treatment Areas
- Lips (overfilled, migrated, or uneven shape)
- Under-eyes (Tyndall effect, puffiness, lumps)
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Cheeks
- Chin and jawline
- Any area with HA filler complications
Additional Information
- Suitable for anyone unhappy with previous filler or experiencing irregularities, puffiness, or migration.
- Extremely useful for dissolving migrated lip filler (“lip shelf” or upper-lip migration).
- Can be combined with corrective filler afterward for improved sculpting and symmetry.
- Clients with a history of allergies or sensitivities may require a patch test prior to treatment.
- Standard booking, deposit, and cancellation policies apply according to clinic guidelines.
HOW IT WORKS
Assessment of Filler Location & Concern
Your provider evaluates the treated area to identify filler placement, migration, lumps, or overfilling. A treatment plan is created based on the amount of filler that needs to be dissolved.
Localized Hyaluronidase Injection
A small amount of hyaluronidase is injected directly into the filler. The enzyme immediately begins breaking down the hyaluronic acid molecules.
Rapid Breakdown of HA Filler
Within minutes to hours, the enzyme dissolves the filler structure, allowing the body to naturally absorb and clear it through the lymphatic system.
Restoration of Natural Facial Contours
As the filler is removed, the treated area softens, smooths, and returns to its natural shape. Additional correction or re-filling (if desired) can be planned after swelling subsides.
BENEFITS
Quickly Fixes Overfilled or Uneven Result
Ideal for dissolving excessive filler, fixing asymmetry, or correcting aesthetic outcomes that no longer look natural.
Treats Filler Migration & Lumps
Great for removing migrated lip filler, under-eye puffiness, or firm filler nodules.
Helps Resolve Complications
Can be used in emergencies, such as vascular compromise, excessive swelling, or incorrect filler placement.
Allows a Fresh Start for Re-Filling
Once dissolved and healed, the area can be refilled properly for better shape, precision, and symmetry.

How fast does the dissolver work?
Most filler begins to dissolve immediately, with visible improvement within hours.
Will it remove all my filler?
The amount dissolved depends on dosage. Your provider can dissolve a little, or fully dissolve the area if needed.
Does dissolver also dissolve natural hyaluronic acid?
It may temporarily reduce natural HA in the injected area, but your body replenishes it over time.
Can I refill the area after dissolving?
Yes — once swelling resolves (typically 1–2 weeks), you can safely have new filler placed.
Are there risks or side effects?
Temporary swelling, redness, or bruising may occur. Rarely, allergic reactions are possible — a patch test may be performed if necessary.
