For some patients, it’s necessary to dissolve old, migrated, and misplaced lip filler before we fill the lips again.
Signs of migrated lip filler include:
A prominent mustache-like shadow above the upper lip
A thick ridge on the borders of the lip
To dissolve lip filler, we inject an enzyme called hyaluronidase (Hyalase) that breaks down the filler and speeds up the naturally occurring dissolving process. The effect is immediate, and many patients see results in a single day.
After dissolving, your lips will need time to heal. We can schedule a refill service 2-4 weeks after the enzyme procedure.
