Hello!
I am Director Bo-hwang Jeong of Cleor Clinic Gangnam.
"The filler looked fine when I first got it,
but over time it spread, making my features look dull."
Have you ever had concerns like this?
Many people find that after receiving filler treatments, the shape becomes undesirable over time,
and more people than you might think want to reverse the results.
While initially satisfying, as time passes,
many consider filler removal due to changes in shape or spreading.
In such cases, I will provide accurate guidance on how to safely dissolve fillers and the precautions you should keep in mind.
Reasons for wanting to dissolve fillers?
While the reasons for wanting to dissolve fillers vary for everyone,
I have compiled the stories I frequently hear in the consultation room.
Hyaluronic acid fillers have the property of attracting moisture,
making them excellent for creating volume.
However,
due to their soft, gel-like physical properties, over time,they have a tendency to gradually spread
to the surrounding areas.
Rather than a side effect, this is closer to anatural change inherent to the filler itself.
The problem is that as these changes accumulate, the appearance deviates from the initial desired look.
In the case of nose fillers, the initially sharp and clear line
tends to spread sideways after about 6 months to a year,
causing the boundaries to blur and the features to look dull.
Furthermore, repeating additional procedures while filler remains
can make the nose look increasingly blunt,
so in these cases, dissolving it once before re-treatment
produces much more natural results.
If you are planning rhinoplasty surgery, dissolving the filler beforehand is an essential step
for proceeding with the surgery safely.
Under-eye (Aegyo-sal) fillers are prone to the Tyndall effect
due to the thin skin in that area.
The Tyndall effect is a phenomenon where the filler scatters light under the skin,
causing it to appear bluish.
It is similar to the principle of why the sky looks blue.
It can look like a bruise or make dark circles appear worse,
so it is often better to dissolve it quickly rather than waiting.
For lip, cheek, or nasolabial fillers, many people want to dissolve them
when the volume is excessive or when spreading over time makes the face look heavy
or gives a sagging impression.
When it looks like weight gain
or differs too much from the desired image, the concern deepens.
Beyond aesthetic reasons, if vascular compression or
adverse skin reactions occur immediately after the procedure,
rapid filler dissolving may be medically necessary.
What is Hyrex (Hyaluronidase) for dissolving fillers?
The enzyme that breaks down and dissolves hyaluronic acid fillers
is Hyaluronidase.
HYREX, used at Cleor Clinic Gangnam,
is a product manufactured in a high-purity liquid form,
and is effectively used for dissolving fillers due to its high purity and stability.
What are the effects of dissolving fillers with Hyrex?
① Rapid Decomposition Effect
High-purity liquid hyaluronidase Hyrex has a fast response,
allowing you to notice changes within
24 to 48 hours after the procedure.
② Natural Restoration
It is not about dissolving everything unconditionally; it is possible to dissolve only the desired amount by precisely adjusting the area and dosage.
③ Reliability of High-Purity Liquid Formulation
Being a high-purity liquid rather than a powder, the purity and
activity of the ingredients remain uniform, ensuring high procedural predictability.
④ Selective Action on Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
It acts only on hyaluronic acid fillers while minimizing impact on other tissues.
⑤ Emergency Response
It can be used to reduce risks through rapid filler dissolving
when vascular compression or adverse skin reactions are a concern.
Precautions to Know Before the Procedure
It is only effective for hyaluronic acid-based fillers.
Fillers with other ingredients, such as collagen or Radiesse, cannot be dissolved with Hyrex.
Temporary swelling and bruising may occur, but most subside within a few days.
An allergy test is recommended before the procedure.
Please avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and saunas immediately after the procedure.
Effects may appear gradually over 24 to 72 hours.
It is important to receive the procedure only after an accurate diagnosis.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Can I get a re-treatment immediately after dissolving the filler?
A. A decision on re-treatment is made after at least 2 weeks, once the tissue has stabilized.
Q. Does the filler dissolve completely in one session?
A. It depends on the amount, area, and duration of the filler,
and while 1–2 sessions are usually sufficient, additional treatments may be required.
Q. Does it hurt a lot?
A. Since numbing cream is applied beforehand, it is not severely painful.
There may be slight differences depending on individual sensitivity.
Q. Will my skin sag or look hollow after dissolving the filler?
A. Since it is returning to the original state before the filler was injected,
it does not necessarily become hollow. A natural line can be created through subsequent re-treatment.
Q. I'm hesitant about re-treatment after dissolving nose filler because I'm afraid it will spread again.
A. That is a completely understandable concern.
In such cases, using medical PDO threads instead of filler
to support the center of the bridge can be a great alternative,
so let's discuss this during your consultation!
Did dissolving fillers feel vaguely scary or difficult?
