If you are unhappy with previous filler, or you simply want to start again, filler dissolving at Skin Complete Medical Aesthetics in Newry offers a safe, medically-led way to remove existing hyaluronic acid filler from the lips or face.
Why dissolve filler?
There are lots of reasons clients choose to dissolve filler: filler that has migrated or spread, an overfilled or unbalanced result, lumps or unevenness, old filler that has built up over time, or simply wanting a fresh start before new treatment. Because we use hyaluronic acid fillers, they can be safely dissolved, which is one of the great reassurances of this type of filler.
How filler dissolving works
Filler dissolving uses an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which is injected into the treated area to gently break down the hyaluronic acid filler. Your body then naturally clears it. Depending on how much filler is present, more than one session is sometimes needed, which we will discuss honestly at your consultation.
What to expect
Every treatment begins with a consultation and, as dissolving requires a patch test in some cases, we will explain the process fully. The treatment itself is quick. Some swelling, tenderness or bruising is normal afterwards and settles within a few days. We usually recommend waiting around two weeks before any new filler so the area fully settles.
Safe, medically-led dissolving in Newry
Dissolving filler should always be carried out by a qualified, medically-led practitioner who can manage the process safely. At Skin Complete we take a careful, honest approach and will always give you realistic advice about what dissolving can achieve.
