Hyaluronidase
Filler Dissolving in Dubai, With a Careful Plan
Filler dissolving uses an enzyme called hyaluronidase to break down hyaluronic acid (HA) filler. It can help if old filler looks lumpy, has moved, looks too full, or simply no longer suits you. At Yeppeun Skin Clinic in Jumeirah 2, Dubai, our DHA-licensed doctor checks your filler first, then plans a careful, step-by-step treatment.
Many people feel stuck with filler they no longer like. The good news is that most fillers used today are HA, and HA can be broken down. That means you can reset and decide what you want next.
Key Benefits
- Softer or removed filler. Unwanted HA filler can be broken down.
- Smoother contours. Lumps or uneven areas can look smoother.
- A fresh start. Once the area settles, you can choose whether to refill or leave it.
- A short treatment. The injections take only a few minutes once your plan is agreed.
- Expert planning. Our doctor checks where the filler is before treating.
Who Needs This
Filler dissolving suits adults (18 and over) with HA filler they want to reduce or remove.
It may help if:
- your filler looks lumpy, puffy or uneven
- your lips or under-eyes look overfilled
- filler has moved from where it was placed
- you want to start again with a more natural plan
It does not work on non-HA fillers such as Radiesse or Sculptra, or on other long-lasting non-HA products. If you are not sure what you had, please bring any records you have.
How It Works
Hyaluronidase is an enzyme. It breaks the bonds that hold HA gel together, so your body can clear it away. Using hyaluronidase to dissolve filler is a medical decision made by our doctor. In some countries, it is outside the product’s official labelled uses, and we explain this before you decide.
Filler Dissolving Results: What to Expect
Your Results, Step by Step
- Within hours to days: the filler often starts to soften and reduce.
- Over the following days: swelling from the injections settles and you see the change.
- At your review: we check the area. Some people need a second session.
- Afterwards: if you want new filler, our doctor will tell you how long to wait first.
The enzyme can also soften some of your own natural hyaluronic acid in the area for a short time. Your body makes more over the following weeks. Results vary from person to person.

Your Appointment, Step by Step
- Consultation. We ask what filler you had, when and where, and check the area.
- Skin test. Our doctor may do a small skin test first to check for an allergic reaction.
- Treatment. Your skin is cleansed and the enzyme is placed into the filler with small injections.
- Review. We check the area and decide whether more is needed.
Possible Side Effects and Risks
Common side effects include swelling, redness, tenderness, itching and bruising. These usually settle over the following days.
Allergic reactions can happen, and rarely they can be serious. Tell us straight away if you notice spreading swelling, hives or trouble breathing. Some people find the area looks flatter than expected for a while, as the enzyme can also affect natural hyaluronic acid.
Who Should Not Have It
Tell us if you have had a reaction to hyaluronidase before, or if you are allergic to bee or wasp stings, as the risk of allergy may be higher. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or where there is an active skin infection.
Filler Dissolving Planning
Treatment Plans
We usually treat gently and review, rather than using a large amount at once. This gives your face the best chance to look natural.
Number of Sessions
Often one session. Some people need a second session.
Time Between Sessions
Our doctor will tell you when to come back for a second session or for new filler, if you want it.
In Combination With & Alternative Treatments
In Combination With
- New filler later, if you want it, such as Restylane Kysse for lips
- Skin Boosters for hydration without adding shape
Alternatives
If your filler is not HA, dissolving will not work. Our doctor will talk you through other options, such as waiting for it to break down or other treatments. A consultation is a good first step.
