Hylanex is placed in the subdermal tissue to dissolve unwanted filler in the face. A spot test is performed on the patients arm a week prior to treatment to rule out allergic reaction. The filler will disappear 24-72 hours after treatment. The area will be assessed after 14 days and can be treated again until optimal results are achieved.

Hyaluronidase is a protein enzyme that helps break down the hyaluronic acid injected into your skin during dermal fillers treatment. Hylenex works by separating the molecules in hyaluronic acid and allowing the body to reabsorb those molecules.
