This is used to remove unwanted hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. It is a pain free process that involves injecting an enzyme that rapidly dissolves the filler over a few minutes and, although the changes are immediate it can take up to 7 days to see the results. We recommend waiting for 3 to 4 weeks prior to repeating hyaluronic acid dermal fillers into the same target site after using a dissolving enzyme.
