Despite the relatively safe use of hyaluronic acid in aesthetic medicine to smooth wrinkles, even out uneven skin and conceal dark circles under the eyes, unforeseen results can occasionally occur.
At AIVA in Berlin, we have an effective solution for such cases: corrective treatment with hyaluronidase. Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that is used specifically to remove or dissolve hyaluronic acid, i.e. to correct any irregularities that have occurred after a treatment with hyaluronic acid.
The treatment is suitable for almost anyone who wants to reverse the results of hyaluronic filler treatments, whether because of overcorrection, asymmetries, nodule formation, the Tyndall effect or other unwanted side effects. In some cases, however, treatment with hyaluronidase is not possible at our clinic in Berlin: if you are allergic to hyaluronidase, are taking antibiotics or blood thinners, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a congenital heart defect.
The sensation can vary from person to person, but the treatment is usually well tolerated. If necessary, we can use local anaesthetics or numbing creams to increase comfort during the short procedure.
A hyaluronidase session at AIVA in Berlin typically lasts between 20 and 30 minutes. The number of sessions required depends on the amount of hyaluronic acid to be removed and the individual's reaction to the treatment. In most cases, clear results are visible after just one session. If you are not satisfied with the results, you can have a touch-up after one to two weeks following a consultation with our team.
Some swelling and bleeding is normal after the treatment. We recommend cooling the affected areas for a while and taking a mild painkiller if necessary. Please avoid nicotine and alcohol in the following days, reduce physical exertion to a minimum and refrain from going to the sauna and massaging the treated area.
Based on our experience, we know that the cost of a hyaluronidase treatment with us in Berlin varies from person to person, as the amount of active ingredient required is always individual. In general, you can expect prices starting at €180.
