Question

I recently had my lips injected with Teosyal Kiss and I really don't like how my upper lip looks - like a duck, specially in the centre.

Would it be possible to remove just a part of the filler from upper lip with hyaluronidase?

If so how much would it cost for this area? I would like to have that done asap as it really bothers me.

Answer

It is possible to use small amounts of hyaluronidase to reduce the amount of the filler, but the procedure is not as accurate as the augmentation and may lead to more significant loss of the injectable fillers than you anticipate.

In a situation like this, you may then have to consider using hyaluronic acid filler to bring the volume to the level that you feel suits your expectations using a new injection treatment.
