About Lip Filler Dissolve

Medspa in Oak Park, IL 60301 l Lip Filler Dissolve Near Me

Lip filler dissolution is a minimally invasive procedure designed to remove unwanted hyaluronic acid (HA)-based filler from the lips. The treatment uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down HA—most commonly in the form of Hylenex® (hyaluronidase human injection), a prescription medication.

This treatment is ideal for individuals who are unhappy with the appearance of overfilled or migrated lip filler and want to restore a more natural look. Results are often visible within hours and require little to no downtime when administered by a licensed provider.

  • Hylenex® is a prescription-only formulation of hyaluronidase used to break down hyaluronic acid-based fillers in the lips. During the treatment, your provider will inject Hylenex® directly into the treated area. The enzyme quickly begins to dissolve the filler, which is naturally absorbed by the body.

    • Assessment – Your provider evaluates your lips and discusses your goals to determine if you’re a good candidate for filler dissolution.

    • Injection – Small amounts of Hylenex® are carefully injected into the areas with unwanted filler.

    • Breakdown Begins – Hylenex® works by breaking down the hyaluronic acid molecules in the filler.

    • Natural Absorption – Your body absorbs the dissolved filler over several hours. Most people begin to see results almost immediately.

    • Follow-Up – In some cases, additional sessions may be needed depending on how much filler was originally used.

    • Treatment Time: 15–30 minutes

    • Visible Results: Often begin within minutes and continue to develop over a few hours

    • Side Effects: Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness; typically resolve within a day

    • Downtime: Minimal; most clients resume normal activities the same day

    Some clients may require a second session depending on the amount of filler present.

  • Price: $350 per treatment

  • Hylenex® is a safe medication used under medical supervision. Allergic reactions are rare but possible; a patch test may be performed if you’ve never had hyaluronidase before.

  • While our service focuses on lip filler removal, hyaluronidase can also be used to dissolve HA fillers in other facial areas. Ask your provider for more information.

  • Yes. Many clients choose to have new filler placed a few weeks after complete dissolution. Your provider will guide the timing.

  • Most providers recommend waiting at least 1 to 2 weeks after dissolution to allow full breakdown of the previous filler and reduce swelling before placing new filler. Your provider will determine the ideal timing based on your treatment goals and healing response.

  • No. Hylenex® (hyaluronidase) only works on hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers. It will not dissolve other types of dermal fillers such as those made with calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid. Your provider will confirm the type of filler used before proceeding with treatment.
