Can Fillers Be Completely Dissolved?

Learn about hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero and how they can be dissolved. Understand what type of filler you're getting and how long it will last before making a decision.

Can Fillers Be Completely Dissolved?

When it comes to fillers, one of the most common assumptions is that hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Belotero, eventually dissolve and then it's time to get more. While it is true that part of what is injected dissolves and is thrown away by the body, it is not true that the body completely dissolves the entire filling. In fact, only HA fillers can be dissolved. After two weeks, when the filler has completely settled, you can reinject the filler into the area correctly and subtly.

It's important to note that not all fillers are created equal. Some are permanent and cannot be dissolved. It's important to discuss your options with your doctor before getting any type of filler injection. If you're considering getting a filler injection, make sure you understand what type of filler you're getting and how long it will last.

Knowing this information can help you make an informed decision about whether or not a filler injection is right for you.
