Get answers to common questions about Lip Dissolve.

Lip Dissolve uses a targeted hyaluronidase enzyme injected into treated areas to break down hyaluronic acid filler molecules. The enzyme safely degrades filler, allowing gradual reduction over days to weeks while clinicians monitor progress and adjust treatments for balanced results.

Most clients experience mild discomfort similar to filler injections. We apply topical numbing and use precise techniques to minimize pain. Some tenderness, swelling, or bruising may occur afterward, typically resolving within a few days to a week.

Initial softening of filler can appear within 24 to 72 hours, with most visible changes occurring over one to three weeks. Complete resolution depends on filler amount and individual metabolism; follow-up visits allow touch-ups or further dissolution as needed.

Yes, hyaluronidase can often correct overfilled or asymmetrical areas by dissolving HA filler. Effectiveness varies with filler type, age, and scar tissue. Our clinicians evaluate each case, recommend conservative treatment, and schedule follow-up to ensure balanced contour and determine if further sessions are needed.

Downtime is minimal for most clients. Expect temporary swelling, bruising, redness, and mild tenderness for a few days up to a week. Avoid strenuous exercise, heat, and blood-thinning medications before and after treatment as advised to reduce bruising and speed recovery.

We typically wait at least two weeks to assess results, often recommending four weeks before placing new filler to ensure full enzyme activity and accurate volume evaluation. Your provider will determine timing based on healing, treatment response, and desired outcome.
