Issues Following Hyaluronidase

Hi and thank you for your question! In general we advise to wait for 2 weeks following any cosmetic injection for the results to settle in and any swelling to go away, so the timeline of the injections you have had is very important in determining the answer to your questions. Hyaluronidase dissolved hyaluronic acid - from filler or naturally occurring - but our body also continues making hyaluronic acid on its own (albeit at lower rate as we age) so it is very unlikely that you suffer lasting effects following hyaluronidase. Worse comes to worse, we can always replenish it with a bit of hyaluronic acid filler injection. I hope it helps and good luck!
