At Ageless Aesthetics MediSpa, our cosmetic nurse injectors are all trained at an advanced level for injecting dermal filler. They are also highly trained at correcting dermal filler issues. We have found that many injectors are not trained with how to correct or dissolve dermal fillers, that's why many patients come to us for correction of dermal filler. Their are some rare exceptions when we will not be able to treat a patient.
Hyaluronidase is an injectable enzyme used to reverse the effects of hyaluronic acid fillers. Dermal fillers are more popular than ever due to the ease of having treatment, the lack of downtime and the side effects, and the consistently stunning rejuvenation results achieved. As much as dermal fillers have been a boon to medical spas, there are times when patients may feel dissatisfied with the final results of their hyaluronic acid fillers. Too often, dermal fillers are injected by untrained or inexperienced injectors, leaving patients with poor cosmetic results. Improper injection techniques can leave patients unhappy with their cosmetic filler injections and can even cause them to need to have their treatment reversed. If you are dealing with an "overdone" look or are otherwise unhappy with the results of your hyaluronic acid fillers, having hyaluronidase injections with Ageless Aesthetics MediSpa can reverse the effects.
Hyaluronidase injections are the "antidote" to poor results of hyaluronic acid filler injections. By injecting hyaluronidase into unwanted areas of hyaluronic acid fillers, these cosmetic injections can be dissolved and reversed.
Hyaluronidase is an injectable enzyme that is marketed with several FDA-approved brand-name formulations, including Hydase, Hylenex, Amphadase, and Vitrase. Hyaluronidase is injected into the same area of the tissue as the hyaluronic acid product (Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Revance, Revanesse Versa) was injected previously. Hyaluronidase injections are used to break down or reverse hyaluronic acid fillers and work fairly quickly, usually within 24 hours. Sometimes, it may be necessary to return for a second or third round of treatment with hyaluronidase, depending on the type and amount of hyaluronic acid filler that was initially used. Hyaluronidase does not worn on non-hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Radiesse or Sculptra.
Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that occurs naturally in the body, and it is produced by white blood cells in order to move more quickly through connective tissues in the body.
Side effects of hyaluronidase are rare. The most likely side effects include a mild amount of swelling, bruising, and tenderness at or near injection sites, which tend to resolve independently within one week of hyaluronidase injections, should they occur. Another potential side effect of hyaluronidase is a mild allergic reaction near the injection site for patients with a hypersensitivity to the treatment, with a reported incidence of between 0.05% and 0.69%. A skin test may be performed before your hyaluronidase injections to evaluate for hypersensitivity.
Hyaluronidase injections are excellent at dissolving hyaluronic acid, and this means that hyaluronidase is able to dissolve natural hyaluronic acid as well. However, hyaluronidase will target the hyaluronic acid linkage within the designated treatment area, which means that it will dissolve the hyaluronic acid filler before dissolving any natural hyaluronic acid. Additionally, hyaluronic acid is a substance that is both produced and dissolved by the body constantly as part of the body's natural ebb and flow. Even the hyaluronidase injection dissolves natural hyaluronic acid, your body will be able to restore your natural hyaluronic acid to its pre-filler level in very little time.
