Hyaluronidase injections in Montreal
Dissolve Unwanted Fillers and Regain your Natural Beauty
Unwanted or overfilled dermal fillers can significantly impact your appearance and confidence. Whether due to aesthetic dissatisfaction, incorrect placement, or overcorrection, the need for precise and effective filler removal is essential. At VisagePros, we offer hyaluronidase injections to safely dissolve hyaluronic acid-based fillers, restoring your natural look with minimal discomfort and downtime.
This treatment is ideal for those who wish to correct overfilled areas or address complications such as lumps or uneven texture. Our experienced team customizes each treatment to ensure safe and effective results, helping you achieve the desired aesthetic outcome with expert precision and care.
What is Hyaluronidase and how does it work?
Hyaluronidase is a naturally occurring enzyme that rapidly breaks down hyaluronic acid, a substance commonly found in many dermal fillers. When injected into the area with unwanted filler, hyaluronidase accelerates the degradation process, allowing the body to reabsorb and eliminate the filler material efficiently. This makes it an ideal solution for those looking to correct overfilled areas or resolve complications such as lumps, uneven texture, or migration of the filler.
The treatment process involves a series of small injections directly into the affected area. The effects of hyaluronidase are typically noticeable within a few hours to a few days, with full results seen in about a week. This minimally invasive procedure is performed in-office with little to no downtime, allowing patients to quickly return to their daily activities.

Preparing for a smooth experience
Before your treatment
To ensure a smooth and effective filler removal experience with hyaluronidase, it’s important to take some preparatory steps. Avoid taking blood-thinning medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements like fish oil and vitamin E for at least a week before the procedure to minimize the risk of bruising. Refrain from consuming alcohol and smoking for at least 48 hours prior to treatment, as these can affect healing and increase the risk of complications. Staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy skincare routine can also enhance the treatment’s effectiveness.
Recovering after your treatment
After your hyaluronidase treatment, follow your practitioner’s aftercare instructions closely to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results. You may experience some redness, swelling, and mild discomfort at the injection sites, which typically subside within a few days. Applying ice packs intermittently for the first 24 hours can help reduce swelling and alleviate discomfort. Avoid touching, massaging, or applying makeup to the treated areas for at least 24 hours to prevent irritation and potential infection. Refrain from strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and heat (such as saunas) for the first 48 hours post-treatment. Using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer, along with applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen, will aid in healing and protect your skin.
Understanding risks and side effects
While hyaluronidase is generally safe and effective, it’s important to be aware of potential risks and side effects. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort at the injection sites. These typically resolve on their own within a few days. Rarely, some patients may experience allergic reactions, infection, or prolonged swelling. Additionally, there is a small risk of overcorrection, where too much filler is dissolved. Choosing a qualified and experienced practitioner is crucial to minimize these risks and ensure precise and safe treatment. If you experience any unusual or prolonged side effects, contact your practitioner immediately to address any concerns.
By preparing adequately and following aftercare instructions, you can ensure a smooth and successful treatment at VisagePros.
