Reversal / Dissolving Dermal Fillers

Hylenex is an injectable enzyme (hyaluronidase) used to safely and precisely dissolve hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers. Whether you're correcting overfilled areas, asymmetry, or simply wishing to return to your natural baseline, Hylenex offers a controlled and effective way to reverse filler results.

How it works

Hylenex breaks down hyaluronic acid molecules in the treated area, allowing the body to naturally metabolize and eliminate the filler. It works quickly, often with visible reduction within 24–72 hours. At BeautiSpell Aesthetics, this treatment is performed with exacting care to preserve your natural facial structure and ensure optimal comfort.

  • Overfilled or puffy appearance from prior filler
  • Filler migration (especially around lips or tear troughs)
  • Asymmetry or uneven contour after filler

What to expect

Your appointment begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your concerns and treatment history. A small amount of Hylenex is injected into the areas where filler needs to be dissolved. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or tenderness that typically resolves within a few days. A follow-up visit may be scheduled to evaluate results or plan future treatments such as re-filling, once the area is fully settled.

Aftercare Instructions

  • Avoid touching or massaging treated areas for 6–12 hours.
  • Mild swelling or redness is common and typically resolves within a few days.
  • Refrain from strenuous activity, heat, or alcohol for 24 hours.
  • Avoid additional treatments in the same area for 7–10 days.
  • Do not plan to re-fill the area until all swelling has subsided and the tissue has fully settled.
  • Contact us if you experience any unusual discomfort or symptoms.
