Will Lip Filler Dissolve On It’s Own?

How Lip Fillers Work

Lip fillers are substances you can inject into the lips to enhance their volume, shape, and symmetry. The most common type of lip filler is hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to maintain skin hydration and elasticity. When injected into the lips, it attracts water molecules, resulting in plumper and more defined lips.

The procedure of getting lip fillers is relatively quick and straightforward. A skilled medical professional will carefully inject the fillers into specific areas of the lips, ensuring a natural and balanced look. The amount of filler used will depend on the desired outcome and the individual. The procedure typically takes around 30 minutes and we perform it under local anaesthesia to minimise discomfort.

 

Duration of Lip Fillers

One important aspect to consider when getting lip fillers is their durability. Lip fillers are not permanent and will gradually break down over time. The longevity of lip fillers can vary depending on several factors, including the type of filler used, the individual’s metabolism, and lifestyle habits. On average, lip fillers can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months. However, it is essential to note that this is just an estimate, and individual results may vary.

It’s also worth mentioning that some individuals may metabolise fillers faster than others, meaning their fillers may fade quicker. Additionally, factors such as smoking, excessive sun exposure, and certain medications can also affect the longevity of lip fillers. To maintain the desired lip volume, we often recommend scheduling touch-up appointments with your medical professional.

 

Will Lip Filler Dissolve on Its Own?

The good news is that lip fillers made with acid have the potential to naturally dissolve over time. These fillers will gradually break down over time and the body will absorb them. However, the rate at which the filler dissolves and the extent of the dissolution can vary depending on the individual’s body chemistry and the specific filler used.

If you wish to accelerate the process of lip filler dissolution, there’s a safe and effective procedure called chemical dissolution. This procedure involves injecting a substance called hyaluronidase, which breaks down the hyaluronic acid filler, into the treated areas. The dissolution can be particularly useful if you are unhappy with the results of your lip fillers or if you experience any complications.

 

Dissolving Lip Fillers: The Procedure and Considerations

Before considering dissolving lip fillers, it is important to consult with a qualified medical professional who specialises in aesthetic procedures, like our team at L’Atelier Aesthetics. We will assess your specific situation and determine if dissolving the fillers is the right option for you. During the procedure, the medical professional will inject hyaluronidase into the areas where the fillers were previously injected. The enzyme will work to break down the acid, gradually dissolving the fillers.

It’s crucial to note that the dissolving process may not be immediate, and multiple sessions may be necessary. We will closely monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan accordingly. It is essential to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your medical professional to ensure proper healing.
