Hylenex FAQs

  • Does Hylenex dissolve fillers?

    Yes! Hylenex is specifically indicated to dissolve hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Versa, and Belotero.

  • How much does Hylenex cost?

    Hylenex pricing varies by provider and treatment area, but average costs start at $190-$450 per treatment session. Consult your local medical spa or dermatologist for specific pricing.

  • What is the difference between hyaluronidase and Hylenex?

    yaluronidase is the general name for the enzyme. Hylenex is a brand-name, purified, recombinant human hyaluronidase, offering superior safety, purity, and consistent results compared to older, animal-derived forms such as Vitrase and Amphadase.

  • How painful is Hylenex?

    Most patients report only mild discomfort, similar to the initial filler injection. Most providers use numbing agents to minimize pain.

  • Can Hylenex dissolve fat?

    No, Hylenex only dissolves hyaluronic acid-based fillers. It does not dissolve fat or fillers like Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite), Bellafill (PMMA), or Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid).

  • Can dissolving filler cause sagging?

    roper use of Hylenex by experienced professionals typically does not cause sagging. Rarely, patients notice temporary minor skin laxity that resolves as natural collagen production resumes.

  • How deep to inject Hylenex?

    Hylenex is injected at the same depth as the original hyaluronic acid filler (superficial dermis, deep dermis, or subcutaneous tissue) to target unwanted product precisely.

  • Is Hylenex FDA approved?

    Yes, Hylenex™ is FDA-approved for medical and aesthetic use in the United States.

  • What to avoid after Hylenex?

    Avoid massaging, rubbing, or applying heat or ice to the treated area for at least 24-48 hours. Follow all post-procedure instructions provided by your healthcare professional.

  • What are the alternatives to Hylenex?

    Alternatives include Vitrase, Amphadase, and compounded hyaluronidase. However, Hylenex is a preferred choice due to its safety profile and FDA approval.

  • Can Hylenex dissolve Sculptra?

    No, Hylenex only works on hyaluronic acid fillers. Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic acid and requires alternative treatment protocols.

Hylenex Hyaluronidase Injection Information

What is Hylenex used for?

Hylenex is a brand name for hyaluronidase, which is an enzyme used in medical settings to help facilitate the
dispersion and absorption of fluids or medications injected into the body. It is often used to improve the absorption of other injected drugs or to help in rehydrating patients. It can also be used to increase the effectiveness of subcutaneous fluid administration in cases like hypodermoclysis (fluid replacement). Additionally, Hylenex can be used to enhance the resolution of subcutaneous and intramuscular drug infiltration.

Hylenex vs Hyaluronidase

Hylenex and hyaluronidase refer to closely related medical products, with some differences primarily in branding and formulation:

Hylenex:

  • Hylenex is a specific brand of hyaluronidase.
  • It is a recombinant human hyaluronidase, meaning it is produced using recombinant DNA technology, ensuring it is identical to the natural human enzyme.
  • Hylenex is generally used to enhance the absorption and dispersion of co-administered drugs and fluids.

Hyaluronidase:

  • This is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid, a component of the extracellular matrix.
  • The enzyme facilitates the dispersion and absorption of injected fluids and medications.
  • It can be derived from various sources, such as bovine (cow) or recombinant technology.

In summary, Hylenex is a specific formulation of hyaluronidase designed for medical use, often preferred due to its human-derived enzyme, which may reduce the risk of allergic reactions compared to animal-derived versions.

Hylenex Protocol

Hylenex, containing hyaluronidase, is
primarily used to enhance the absorption and dispersion of other injected drugs or fluids. It's often utilized in various medical scenarios, such as fluid administration, contrast agent dispersion, and subcutaneous drug delivery.

General Outline for Hylenex Usage Protocol:

Indication: Ensure verification of Hylenex's necessity for enhancing absorption of fluids or medications.

Dosage: Typically, Hylenex is administered subcutaneously with the specific dosing based on the accompanying medication or fluid's volume and concentration. Follow specific dosage guidelines as recommended by healthcare practitioners or protocols.

Administration:

  • Preparation: Confirm it's the right product and prepare the syringe with the recommended dose.
  • Injection Site: Select an appropriate injection site, usually the same site where the accompanying fluid or drug will be administered.
  • Technique: Administer Hylenex subcutaneously, ensuring aseptic techniques.

Monitoring: Observe for any
adverse reactions post-administration. These can include local reactions
like redness, swelling, or systemic effects, though they are generally
rare.

Documentation: Record the usage in the patient’s medical record, including dosage, time, and any observed reactions.

For tailored protocols, always refer to institutional guidelines or consult a healthcare professional.

Hylenex Side Effects:

Hylenex can have side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include:

Injection Site Reactions:

  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Pain or tenderness

Allergic Reactions: Though rare, some individuals may experience:

  • Rash
  • Itching
  • Difficulty breathing

Other Effects:

It's important to monitor for any unusual symptoms after receiving Hylenex and report them to a healthcare provider. If you suspect an allergic reaction, seek medical attention immediately. Always use Hylenex under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
