Filler dissolving treatment in Hertfordshire

Filler dissolving at Beauty Bar

Safe and effective filler dissolving for people who would like to remove unwanted or problematic dermal filler.

Dissolving works by breaking down hyaluronic acid molecules in dermal filler. We would like to help you restore a fresh, natural and rejuvenated look that will make you confident and aligns with your aesthetic goals.

What is hyaluronidase and how does it work?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance found in the skin and connective tissues. HA is a gel like substance used in dermal fillers to add volume and smooth wrinkles. When injected, hyaluronidase quickly breaks down the HA in fillers, and the body removes the dissolved material.

This enzyme effectively reduces filler’s structure and viscosity. It spreads through the tissues, targets HA filler and breaks it down.

Hyaluronidase is a non specific enzyme, it can also affect the body’s natural HA. It’s an effective option for correction or reversal of HA filler treatments when needed.
