Aesthetic Corrections
(Filler Dissolving - Prescription only medicine)
Not every aesthetic treatment produces the desired result. Whether due to the natural ageing process, changes in facial anatomy over time, product migration, previous treatment choices or unsatisfactory outcomes, there are occasions when corrective treatment may be beneficial.
At Redefine Clinic, Jenny has extensive experience in assessing and managing aesthetic concerns, providing honest advice and personalised treatment plans to help restore facial balance and achieve natural-looking results where possible.
Every correction begins with a detailed consultation and assessment to understand your treatment history, concerns and goals before discussing the most appropriate course of action.
When might aesthetic correction be appropriate?
Corrective treatment may be considered for a variety of reasons, including:
Unsatisfactory results from previous aesthetic treatments
Dermal filler migration
Overfilled or disproportionate features
Facial asymmetry
Lumps or irregularities following filler treatment
Age-related changes causing previous filler to appear less balanced
Changes in facial structure following significant weight loss
Restoring a more natural appearance
Refreshing or updating older treatments
Not every concern requires dissolving filler. In many cases, careful assessment and strategic treatment can achieve a more balanced result.

Dermal Filler Dissolving
Where appropriate, unwanted hyaluronic acid dermal filler can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
This may be recommended where filler has migrated, become uneven, been overfilled, or is no longer producing the desired appearance.
Before treatment, Jenny will carry out a thorough assessment to determine whether dissolving is the most appropriate option. In some cases, only part of the filler requires dissolving, while in others a staged approach may provide the best outcome.
Typical treatment plan
Some patients require only a single treatment, whilst others may benefit from staged correction before considering further treatment.
Typical treatment
Treatment is tailored to the amount and location of filler requiring dissolution.
Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. In many cases, only selected areas require treatment. Jenny will recommend the most conservative and appropriate approach following assessment.
-
Depending on the reason for dissolving and how the tissues respond, it may be advisable to allow a period of healing before further treatment.
-
Many cases can be improved, although results depend on the amount, location and type of filler present. Occasionally more than one treatment session is required.

Not always. The face naturally changes over time, and previous treatments, ageing and tissue changes can all influence the final result. The aim is to achieve the safest and most natural-looking improvement possible.
