Filler dissolving is a non-surgical, quick procedure that involves injecting hyaluronidase to target hyaluronic acid fillers, such as those used in the lips, cheeks, under-eye areas, and jawline. Hyaluronidase works by breaking down the hyaluronic acid filler, allowing it to be absorbed and eliminated by the body. This procedure is highly effective for patients who wish to adjust or reverse the effects of fillers without waiting for natural degradation.
Filler Dissolving in Dubai with Dr. Lyor Hanan: A Solution for Unwanted or Excessive Fillers
Filler dissolving is a specialized aesthetic procedure aimed at breaking down and removing hyaluronic acid-based fillers in cases where results are undesired, excessive, or asymmetrical. Using a solution of hyaluronidase, a naturally occurring enzyme, this technique effectively restores natural contours by dissolving unwanted filler material. Dr. Lyor Hanan offers professional, safe filler dissolving treatments in Dubai, helping patients achieve refined, natural results.

What is Filler Dissolving?
Why Consider Filler Dissolving?
There are many reasons why individuals might seek filler dissolving:
- Overfilled Appearance: When too much filler has been injected, creating an unnatural or “puffy” look.
- Asymmetry: Uneven results that affect facial harmony.
- Migration of Filler: Filler may move from the intended area to a neighboring region over time.
- Lumps or Irregularities: In rare cases, fillers can form lumps or uneven textures.
- Change in Aesthetic Preference: Some patients decide to restore a more natural appearance or wish to try a different approach to facial contouring.
- Complications: Filler dissolving is sometimes necessary to address complications, such as vascular compromise, a rare but serious issue where blood flow is obstructed due to filler placement.
With expertise in facial aesthetics and injectable treatments, Dr. Lyor Hanan can evaluate each case and recommend filler dissolving if it is the best option for achieving the patient’s aesthetic goals.
Who is a Candidate for Filler Dissolving?
Filler dissolving is suitable for most individuals with hyaluronic acid-based fillers who wish to adjust or remove the effects. Ideal candidates are:
- Individuals with Unwanted Filler Results: If filler results are excessive, asymmetrical, or create a “puffy” look, dissolving is an option.
- Hyaluronic Acid-Based Fillers Only: Filler dissolving is effective only on hyaluronic acid fillers. Other fillers (e.g., calcium hydroxylapatite) cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase.
The Filler Dissolving Procedure with Dr. Lyor Hanan
Filler dissolving is a straightforward and minimally invasive process:
- Consultation and Assessment: Dr. Lyor Hanan first assesses the area, reviewing the type and quantity of filler previously used and discussing the patient’s goals.
- Hyaluronidase Injection: Hyaluronidase is carefully injected into the area containing filler. The enzyme breaks down the filler material, which is gradually absorbed by the body.
- Observation: The effects of hyaluronidase can be seen almost immediately, although it may take up to 48 hours for full results to develop.
- Follow-Up: Some patients may require additional treatments if large amounts of filler are present or if more adjustments are desired.
The entire procedure usually takes between 15 to 30 minutes, making it a convenient option for those looking for fast adjustments.
Expected Results and Recovery from Filler Dissolving
After the procedure, the treated area typically regains a natural contour and appearance, free from the excess or undesired filler. Results are visible immediately in most cases, with full effects taking up to 48 hours. Patients may experience minor side effects, such as slight redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site, but these typically resolve within a few days.
Benefits of Filler Dissolving
Filler dissolving offers numerous benefits:
- Quick and Effective Solution: Allows for immediate correction of excessive or unwanted filler.
- Minimal Downtime: Patients can resume normal activities right after the procedure.
- Reversible Results: Provides a way to reverse hyaluronic acid fillers, restoring the natural appearance.
- Improved Aesthetic Control: Offers patients greater control over their aesthetic results and allows them to achieve a more natural, balanced look.
Safety Considerations and Risks of Filler Dissolving
While filler dissolving is generally safe, it’s essential to have the procedure done by an experienced professional. Potential side effects and considerations include:
- Allergic Reactions: Rarely, patients may be allergic to hyaluronidase; a patch test can help determine sensitivity.
- Bruising or Swelling: Minor, temporary bruising or swelling may occur at the injection site.
- Inconsistent Results: In some cases, hyaluronidase may dissolve more filler than desired, requiring further treatment.
By consulting with an experienced injector like Dr. Lyor Hanan, patients can ensure their results are precise, safe, and tailored to their needs.
