Understanding
filler dissolving

Filler dissolving is a process that involves injecting small quantities of a liquid substance, called Hyaluronidase (or ‘hyalase’) into areas of previous hyaluronic acid dermal filler. So This process dissolves the filler and helps to reverse its cosmetic effects.

At Bayati Clinic, we maintain the highest standard of care and use the most comprehensive scanning technology with high resolution imaging capabilities. Dr Bayati is an NHS specialist in image-guided procedures using ultrasound, and is one of a few UK experts in the use of ultrasound imaging to map previous filler placement and accurately target filler for reversal. So This targeted approach avoids conventional “blind” dissolving and has the advantage of using only the minimum quantity of hyalase.

Hyaluronidase (also known as ‘Hyalase’) is an enzyme that naturally occurs in our skin. Its liquid form is an approved prescription-only substance frequently administered to boost the absorption or breakdown of hyaluronic acid filler that has been injected underneath the skin. It has an off license use in aesthetic medicine.

Hyaluronidase breaks down the bonds that keep hyaluronic acid filler molecules together. The filler will often immediately begin to soften and dissolve over a period of a few days up to two weeks.

Common reasons for filler reversal

Ultrasound filler dissolve

As patients frequently visit cosmetic clinics pursuing filler treatment for a variety of aesthetic concerns, complications may occur.

Although uncommon, fillers may cause a wide range of problems. Reversing filler is usually, but not always, effective in addressing these complications.

The most common complications in patients presenting to our clinic, requiring dissolving treatments include:

  • Puffiness / swelling from overfilling
  • Filler migration
  • Incorrect filler placement into facial muscles
  • Blue discolouration (Tyndall effect)
  • Contour irregularities / asymmetry
  • Infected filler (very rare)
  • Serious complications such skin necrosis (very rare)

Example patients attending with significant facial distortion and overfilling with hyaluronic acid filler. Ultrasound guided filler mapping and targeting dissolving performed, followed by correct filler re-treatment using appropriate quantities.

Visualising your filler
in real time
with ultrasound imaging

Be part of the process by following the real-time ultrasound scan of your facial anatomy, to become well educated about your treatments and visualise your cosmetic concern. So Same day or follow-up ultrasound guided filler dissolving can be performed to reverse regions of unwanted filler.

“Ultrasound-guided cosmetic treatment merges my separate expertise in clinical radiology and aesthetic medicine… and so offers a distinguished approach in treatment safety and evaluation”

Role of
MRI scanning

MRI scanning is an advanced imaging method for facial filler mapping. So We create highly specialised 3D facial models using MRI to map the distribution of previously injected filler. So This diagnostic approach is used in patients with more complicated filler history in order to provide a more comprehensive visual overview of filler location, prior to ultrasound-guided dissolving.
