What is a Hyaluronidase Injection For?

Hyaluronidase injections are used for: Dissolving unwanted hyaluronic acid fillers (e.g., overcorrection, migration, lumps) Managing complications after dermal filler injections (vascular occlusion, nodules) Enhancing absorption of subcutaneous fluids or medications in medical settings Emergency management of filler-related vascular compromise

How Does Hyaluronidase Work? What Happens if You Inject It?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid—the main component of most modern fillers. When injected, it breaks apart HA molecules, quickly softening and dissolving the treated filler, restoring natural contours.

How Quickly Does Hyaluronidase Work? How Long Does it Last?

Onset: Visible effects begin within 15–60 minutes; full results in about 24–48 hours. Duration: Hyaluronidase’s action lasts several hours, but the body clears the dissolved product within days. Some cases require a second or third session for complete correction.

How is a Hyaluronidase Injection Administered?

Injection technique: Small amounts are carefully injected with a fine needle or cannula directly into the targeted area where the filler is present. Performed only by licensed, trained medical professionals for optimal safety and precision.

How Much Do Hyaluronidase Injections Cost?

Cost: Varies by amount needed and provider experience, ranging from $200–$750 per session in the US. Check local aesthetic clinics or dermatologists for personalized estimates.

What are the Side Effects of Hyaluronidase?

Common: Redness, swelling, bruising, mild discomfort at the injection site. Rare: Allergic reaction (itching, hives, serious rash), over-correction, uneven texture, infection.

Who is a Good Candidate for Hyaluronidase?

Anyone with undesirable results from hyaluronic acid fillers (lumps, nodules, migration) Patients with vascular complications, overfilling or Tyndall effect Only those without allergies to hyaluronidase or bee stings (cross-reactivity) Must be medically appropriate—consult your provider!

How Risky is Dissolving Fillers? Does Hyaluronidase Remove All Fillers?

Risks are low when performed by an experienced medical professional. Hyaluronidase only dissolves hyaluronic acid-based fillers — not permanent or non-HA fillers. Excessive use can, rarely, affect surrounding natural tissue (minimized by precise dosing).

Can Hyaluronidase Dissolve Fat?

No, hyaluronidase does not dissolve fat—it only affects hyaluronic acid.

What to Expect After a Hyaluronidase Injection

Temporary swelling and redness resolve in hours to days. Area appears softer or restored to pre-filler state. Results are rapidly visible and mostly complete within 48 hours.

Is Hyaluronidase Injection Safe? Does It Go Into the Bloodstream?

Yes, hyaluronidase is FDA-approved and considered safe when injected correctly. It acts locally at the site of injection and is rapidly metabolized—systemic effects are rare.

Do Hospitals Carry Hyaluronidase?

Yes. Hyaluronidase (including Hylenex®) is stocked in ERs and hospitals for extravasation, hypodermoclysis, and emergency use for filler-related complications.

What Does Hyaluronidase Do To Your Body?

Locally breaks down hyaluronic acid, increases tissue permeability, enhances fluid dispersion for other injected medications.

When Should Hyaluronidase Not Be Used?

Allergy to hyaluronidase or bee venom Active infection at injection site Hypersensitivity to previous injections Not for use on non-HA fillers

Is There an Alternative to Hyaluronidase?

No direct enzymatic equivalent for HA fillers. Other non-enzymatic methods (massage, saline) are not as effective.

Can You Dissolve Just the Migrated Filler?

Yes. Skilled injectors target only the undesired area, allowing for highly selective filler removal.

How Many Sessions of Hyaluronidase?

Most only need one session. Severe cases or large filler volumes may need 2–3 sessions.

Does Dissolved Filler Leave Saggy Skin?

Temporary minor laxity can occur if large volumes dissolved, but natural collagen and skin elasticity generally restore normal contours within weeks.

How to Dissolve Fillers Without Hyaluronidase?

Massage, time, and saline flushing may minimally help—but results are unreliable compared to hyaluronidase.

Is Hyaluronidase Bad?

No, when medically indicated and expertly administered, it is safe and a crucial part of cosmetic medicine patient safety.

Does Your Face Go Back to Normal After Fillers—or Hyaluronidase?

In most cases, natural facial structure returns after filler is dissolved. Occasional minor swelling or irregularities resolve as tissue heals. Hylenex specifically and other hyaluronidase brands have high safety and efficacy profiles.

Does Hyaluronidase Destroy Natural Tissue?

Proper dosing targets filler only, but high doses could affect natural hyaluronic acid—always see experienced injectors for best outcome.
