What Is Lip Filler Dissolving?
Lip filler dissolving uses hyaluronidase, an enzyme that specifically breaks down hyaluronic-acid (HA) fillers. It’s ideal when filler has migrated above the vermilion border, created lumps or asymmetry, looks overfilled, or you simply want to start fresh. At Esthetic Finesse, we map where product sits, dose conservatively, and reassess in real time for safe, precise correction.
How Lip Filler Dissolving Works
- Targeted treatment: Hyaluronidase binds to HA filler and breaks it into smaller fragments your body clears naturally.
- Fast onset: You’ll see early changes in minutes; most dissolving occurs within 24–72 hours.
- Layered approach: We often use small, staged doses to avoid over-dissolving and to refine results.
- Only for HA fillers: It will not dissolve non-HA products (e.g., Sculptra, Radiesse).
Benefits of Dissolving Lip Filler
- Restores natural lip shape and border definition
- Corrects migration and smooths uneven areas
- Lets you re-design your lips on a clean canvas
- Quick visit, minimal downtime, high satisfaction
When to Consider Dissolving
- Migration above the lip line (“filler mustache”)
- Lumps, uneven texture, or asymmetry
- Overfilled/heavy look you don’t love
- You want a reset before a better-planned refill
What to Expect After Lip Filler Dissolving
| Timeline | What Happens | What to Do / Expect |
|---|---|---|
| Immediately (0–1 hour) | Hyaluronidase starts breaking down filler. Some swelling, redness, or stinging is common. | Mild discomfort; ice packs may be applied in clinic. Early changes are noticeable right away. |
| 1–3 days | Swelling and tenderness peak, then begin to subside. Filler continues dissolving. | Expect lips to look uneven or “puffy” temporarily. Avoid heat, alcohol, or strenuous exercise for 24 hours. |
| 3–7 days | Most swelling resolves. Final dissolving effect becomes visible. | Lips begin to normalize; any lumps, migration, or heaviness noticeably reduced. |
| 1–2 weeks | Full settling period. Injector can assess natural lip shape. | Best time to plan a refill or redesign if desired. |

Discomfort is typically mild; numbing and careful technique keep you comfortable.
