Dissolving Unwanted Filler in NYC

Individualized, physician-performed aesthetic treatment at Dermacare Medical in Manhattan and Tappan with Dr. Yuriy Yagudin.

About the Treatment

Hyaluronidase may be used to reduce unwanted hyaluronic-acid filler after examination. It does not dissolve every injectable material, and the response depends on the product, placement and clinical concern.

Personalized Planning

Bring any available records showing the filler brand, dates and injection areas. Dr. Yagudin assesses whether the concern reflects filler, swelling, a nodule or another problem before discussing dissolution.

What to Expect

When hyaluronidase is appropriate, it is injected into selected areas after assessment of the original filler and concern. Swelling, bruising and allergic reactions are possible.

Results & Follow-Up

Reassess after the early swelling settles. More than one session may be required, and the effect is not always precisely predictable. Further filler should be considered only after appropriate reassessment.

Safety & Candidacy

Tell Dr. Yagudin about medical conditions, medications, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, previous procedures and active skin problems. Treatment-specific risks, benefits and alternatives are reviewed before treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many treatments will I need?

The treatment plan depends on anatomy, goals and response.

Is there downtime?

Downtime varies. Many patients return to routine activities quickly, although temporary treatment-site effects can occur.

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

An in-person evaluation is the best way to determine candidacy and compare appropriate options.

Planning Your Dissolving Unwanted Filler

Can all fillers be dissolved?

No. Hyaluronidase acts on hyaluronic acid; it does not dissolve Sculptra, Radiesse or permanent fillers in the same way. Knowing the injected product is important.

Will one session restore my previous appearance exactly?

Not necessarily. More than one session may be needed, swelling can temporarily affect appearance and precise restoration of a previous contour cannot be promised.

Is dissolving a filler risk-free?

No. Injection reactions, swelling, bruising and allergic reactions can occur. Severe pain, unusual skin color or vision changes after filler require urgent assessment rather than a routine elective dissolution appointment.
