Dermal fillers are one of the most popular treatments in medical aesthetics — loved for their ability to restore youthful volume, enhance facial contours, and smooth fine lines with instant results. But sometimes, adjustments are needed. Whether due to overfilling, uneven placement, or a change in aesthetic goals, hyaluronidase (often called a filler reversal) provides a safe, effective way to correct or dissolve unwanted hyaluronic acid filler.

At Authentic Medical, PLLC, with locations in Scottsdale and Glendale, Arizona, our licensed medical team uses hyaluronidase carefully and precisely to ensure you achieve the most natural-looking, balanced results possible.

What Is Hyaluronidase?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that naturally breaks down hyaluronic acid (HA) — the main ingredient in popular dermal fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Versa®. When injected into the skin, hyaluronidase dissolves HA filler safely and gradually, allowing the treated area to return closer to its natural state.

This treatment is ideal for correcting aesthetic issues or addressing rare complications such as filler migration or vascular compression.

When Hyaluronidase May Be Used

Our experienced providers may recommend hyaluronidase for several reasons, including:

• Overfilled areas or uneven results – If too much filler was used or the results look unnatural.
• Lumps or nodules – To smooth irregular texture or unwanted bumps.
• Migration – When filler moves outside the intended treatment area.
• Adjusting results – To refine or reshape your filler for a softer, more balanced look.
• Medical necessity – In rare cases of vascular compromise, where immediate filler reversal is needed to restore circulation.

What to Expect During Filler Dissolving

At Authentic Medical, every filler reversal begins with a personalized consultation. Your provider will review your filler history, examine the area, and discuss your goals before carefully administering hyaluronidase.

The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes, and results begin appearing within 24–48 hours. Mild swelling or redness may occur but usually subsides quickly. Once the area stabilizes, many clients choose to refill with fresh, properly placed HA filler for a more natural and refined look.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take for filler to dissolve after hyaluronidase?
Most patients notice significant improvement within 24–72 hours, though full breakdown may take up to a week.

Can I get new filler after using hyaluronidase?
Yes — typically after two weeks, once the area is fully settled and any residual enzyme activity has subsided.

Does hyaluronidase work on all fillers?
No. It only dissolves hyaluronic acid-based fillers (e.g., Juvederm®, Restylane®). It does not affect fillers made from other substances like Radiesse® or Sculptra®.

Is filler reversal painful?
Most patients describe mild discomfort similar to a small injection. We use numbing cream and gentle techniques to ensure a comfortable experience.
