Hyaluronidase is a clinically proven enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid. Traditionally used to enhance the absorption of medications into tissue and minimize damage from drug extravasation, it has become an indispensable tool in aesthetic medicine. With the widespread use of hyaluronic acid fillers, hyaluronidase is essential for safely correcting complications, adjusting overfilled areas, or addressing unsatisfactory results after filler treatments.

What is Hyaluronidase?

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid (HA)—the same substance used in many dermal fillers. It’s used by medical and aesthetic professionals when it’s necessary to dissolve or correct HA fillers.


How It Works

  • HA fillers are designed to add volume by attracting water and supporting tissue structure.

  • When an HA filler result needs altering—either because of undesirable outcome, over‑filling, lumpiness, or a complication—hyaluronidase is injected into the area. It accelerates the breakdown of HA, thereby dissolving the filler or altering its effects.

  • It acts by degrading the HA gel network and allowing the body to clear it more quickly than waiting for natural absorption.


Uses & Indications

  • Correcting or revising unwanted results from HA dermal fillers (e.g., asymmetry, over‑correction, migration).

  • Treating certain complications of filler placement, when performed by a trained professional.

  • Note: It only works on HA fillers; it does not dissolve other filler materials (e.g., calcium hydroxylapatite or poly‑L‑lactic acid).


Benefits & Considerations

Benefits:

  • Rapid correction of filler outcomes when necessary.

  • Helps manage complications without requiring surgery.

Considerations / Risks:

  • It might dissolve more filler than intended, potentially requiring subsequent filler to re‑build desired effect.

  • As with any injectable, there are risks of swelling, bruising, allergic reactions (rare).

  • Proper diagnosis and dosage are essential—must be administered by someone trained in aesthetic injectables.

  • It’s not a routine “first step” for filler; it’s used when adjustment or correction is required.

The PRP hair restoration treatment results are long-lasting but may require regular maintenance sessions to keep up the results. The entire course of treatment can take a few months to up to one year before the final improvement is seen. However, the results are not immediate and can take a few months to one year to see a change in the hair growth pattern.

PRP is a relatively straightforward process. There's no significant recovery or downtime involved. However, you may feel slightly swollen or sensitive for the first few days after the PRP injections, which quickly resolves. In the first few days after your injections, it's essential to avoid sun exposure which can hinder the healing process. You'll want to avoid washing and styling your hair in the days following your injections.

The side effects of a PRP treatment are minimal and can include slight pain, pinpoint bleeding, redness, a feeling of tightness, minor bruising, and headaches. Ice packs and warm showers can reduce any immediate discomfort, and taking some aspirin can also help. There are no real risks with PRP injections, and the treatment is safe and effective.

When it comes to restoring the hair, PRP is the most effective treatment available today. Although hair supplements, medications, and pills exist, they need to be taken daily. In addition, other therapies like light and laser caps and hair restoration surgery are more invasive than PRP.
