Filler Dissolving: Undo Bad Filler, Start Fresh
Migrated lip filler. Puffy under-eyes. That overfilled look that doesn’t move right.
Hyaluronic-acid filler is fully reversible: hyaluronidase (Hylenex) enzymatically dissolves it, often within 24 to 48 hours.
How Filler Dissolving Works at TONIIK
The process: a consult (plus a patch test if needed), then targeted hyaluronidase injections placed directly into the old filler. Most softening is visible within 48 hours.
The plan: straightforward corrections often take one session, and complex migration may need two rounds. We tell you which we expect, and what it will cost, at the consult before we start.
What it fixes:
- Filler migration above the lip line
- Lumps, nodules and unevenness
- Puffy, overfilled under-eyes
- Overfilled cheeks or lips that don’t move naturally
We wait 2 weeks before refilling correctly, or rebuilding with your own tissue via PRF and Bio-Filler.
