Every face is unique — that's why we begin with a personalised consultation at the start of every appointment to assess your skin concerns, discuss your goals, and create a tailored plan for your treatment.

Questions, answered

What is it?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme used to dissolve hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. It allows for correction of overfilled areas, asymmetry, or unwanted results.

How does it work?

The enzyme is injected into the treated area, breaking down the hyaluronic acid molecules in the filler. This softens or completely dissolves the filler, restoring a natural appearance.

What does it treat?

Overfilled lips or cheeks; asymmetry from previous filler treatments; lumps, bumps, or irregularities from filler. A full consultation determines exact dosing.

How many treatments do I need?

Most cases are corrected with a single session. Some stubborn areas may require a follow-up after 1–2 weeks.

What results can I expect?

Visible correction within 24–72 hours, with the full effect by one week.

Is treatment painful?

Mild, brief discomfort. Topical numbing or ice can be used.

What is the recovery time?

1–3 days for minor swelling or redness.

What are the side effects or risks?

Temporary swelling or redness; mild bruising; rare allergic reactions; over-dissolution is possible if not precisely dosed.

Can it be reversed?

No — hyaluronidase permanently dissolves the targeted filler.

Is it safe for everyone?

Safe for most adults. Not suitable if you are allergic to hyaluronidase.

What should I do before my treatment?

Avoid blood thinners for 24–48 hours, arrive with clean skin, and discuss any allergies with your clinician.

What should I do after treatment?

Avoid massaging the area for 24 hours, use ice if there is swelling, and attend your follow-up appointment.

Can it be combined with other treatments?

Yes — it can be combined with corrective filler or other rejuvenation treatments as advised.
