Filler Dissolving in San Antonio

What is a Filler Dissolving?

Filler dissolving uses hyaluronidase — an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid filler — to reverse unwanted, migrated, lumpy, or overdone filler. It is also used urgently to treat a vascular occlusion, a rare but serious filler complication.

A small amount of enzyme is injected into the treated area, and the filler breaks down within 24 to 48 hours. Mild swelling is normal; you will see the area settle over a day or two, and you can usually re-filler after about two weeks if you want a fresh, corrected result.

Dissolving is priced per area or per session — not by the syringe — and is far cheaper than the filler it removes. Many providers charge a flat fee per session. Ask whether the price is per area, whether a patch test is done, and how much they expect you will need.

How much does a Filler Dissolving cost in San Antonio?

Filler dissolving in San Antonio typically costs $225 to $450 per session — a flat per-area fee for the hyaluronidase enzyme, not the price of a syringe of filler. Larger amounts of old filler or multiple areas can require more enzyme or a second visit, which raises the total.
