Lip Filler Dissolving

Reset Your Lips. Restore Natural Beauty.

If your lip filler no longer feels right - whether due to overfilling, unevenness or a change in your preferences - Lip Filler Dissolving offers a safe and effective way to return to a more natural look. This medically-led treatment gently breaks down existing filler, allowing your lips to reset and regain their natural shape.

At House of Glo, Nurse Julie delivers this treatment with precision, care and a supportive approach - helping you feel confident, comfortable and back in control of your results.

What is Lip Filler Dissolving treatment?

Lip Filler Dissolving treatment is a non-surgical procedure used to safely break down and remove previously placed hyaluronic acid filler from the lips. It involves the use of a specialised enzyme called hyaluronidase, which works by dissolving the filler so it can be naturally absorbed by the body.

This treatment is often chosen if your lips feel overfilled, uneven, have developed lumps or no longer reflect your natural aesthetic. It can also be used as a first step before re-treating the lips to achieve a softer, more balanced result.

What Does Lip Filler Dissolving Treatment Treat?

Lip Filler Dissolving treatment is designed to safely remove or adjust previously placed filler, helping to restore natural lip shape, softness and balance.

It can help to treat:

  • Overfilled or overly large lips
  • Uneven or asymmetrical filler results
  • Lumps, bumps or irregular texture
  • Filler that has migrated beyond the lip border
  • A heavy or unnatural lip appearance
  • Poorly placed or unsatisfactory previous treatment
  • The need to reset the lips before re-treatment

Is Lip Filler Dissolving Treatment safe?

When performed by a qualified and experienced medical professional, Lip Filler Dissolving treatment is considered safe. It uses an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which has been widely used in medical practice for many years to safely break down hyaluronic acid filler.

The lips are a delicate and highly vascular area, so careful assessment and precise technique are essential. At House of Glo, Nurse Julie carries out a thorough consultation to review your treatment history, assess the lips and ensure dissolving is appropriate for you. A patch test may be recommended where necessary, and a controlled, conservative approach is always taken.

What to Expect from the Lip Filler Dissolving session

1. Consultation

Your appointment begins with a detailed consultation with Nurse Julie. We’ll discuss your concerns, review any previous lip filler treatment and assess the shape, symmetry and condition of your lips.

Your medical history will be reviewed to ensure treatment is appropriate, and a patch test may be recommended where necessary. A personalised plan will be created, whether your goal is to fully dissolve or subtly adjust existing filler.

2. Treatment

If suitable, small amounts of hyaluronidase are carefully injected into the areas of filler. The procedure is relatively quick and typically takes around 20–30 minutes.

You may feel a mild stinging sensation during treatment, but discomfort is generally minimal. The enzyme begins working almost immediately to break down the filler.

3. Aftercare

Mild swelling, redness or tenderness are common due to the sensitivity of the lips. You’ll be advised to:

  • Avoid touching or massaging the lips
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol for 24 hours
  • Apply a cold compress if needed to reduce swelling
  • Keep the lips hydrated
  • Follow personalised aftercare guidance provided

Full aftercare support will always be given.

4. Results

You may begin to notice changes within 24–48 hours, with continued improvement over the following days as the filler is broken down and absorbed.

In some cases, more than one session may be required to achieve the desired result. Once the lips have fully settled, a review can be arranged to discuss next steps if further refinement or re-treatment is planned.

The outcome is a natural reset - restoring softness, balance and helping you feel more comfortable and confident in your lips again.

FAQs

In many cases, Lip Filler Dissolving can be carried out in a single session - but this depends on the amount, type and placement of the existing filler.

Following your consultation and assessment with Nurse Julie, a personalised plan will be created. Some patients achieve their desired result after one appointment, while others may require additional sessions to fully dissolve or carefully refine the lips.

A controlled, conservative approach is always taken to ensure the most natural and balanced outcome. A review appointment is typically recommended to assess how your lips have responded before deciding on any further treatment.
