You’re Not Alone, And Correction Is Possible
If your filler results feel uneven, overdone, or simply not like you, you’re not alone. Many patients seek a second opinion when results don’t match expectations.
Our approach is thoughtful, discreet, and focused on restoring balance — not judgment.
Why Choose a Board-Certified Dermatologist for Filler Correction?
Filler correction requires a different level of precision than initial placement. It demands:
• Deep understanding of facial anatomy
• Experience managing complications
• Conservative dosing judgment
• Knowledge of tissue response
All corrective treatments at Springs Dermatology MD are performed by Dr. Shereen Timani, a triple board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience in aesthetic and corrective procedures.
When Is Filler Correction Needed?
Dermal fillers are designed to restore volume and enhance contours, but aesthetic preferences evolve and outcomes can vary. Patients seek filler correction for many reasons, including:
• Persistent swelling or puffiness
• Asymmetry Overfilled appearance
• Migration Lumps or irregular texture
• Results that simply feel “off”
Some patients seek correction after treatment performed elsewhere. Others return when their aesthetic goals change over time. Every case is evaluated individually.
How Filler Correction Works
Most modern fillers are made of hyaluronic acid. When adjustment is needed, a dissolving agent called hyaluronidase can be carefully administered to break down unwanted filler.
Correction may involve:
• Partial dissolving
• Full reversal
• Strategic reshaping
• Conservative rebalancing
Treatment plans are customized based on anatomy, tissue quality, and desired outcome.
Under-Eye, Lips, Cheeks & More
Filler correction is not limited to one area. We evaluate and treat concerns across the face, including:
• Under-eye filler concerns
• Lip filler irregularities
• Cheek asymmetry
• Jawline contour imbalance
• Nasolabial fold overcorrection
The goal is always facial harmony, not simply dissolving product.
Can Filler Be Replaced After Dissolving?
Yes. In many cases, once tissue has settled and swelling resolves, filler can be reintroduced in a more balanced and conservative manner.
Some patients choose correction only. Others prefer a refined re-approach after careful reassessment.
Filler Correction vs. Filler Dissolving
Not all correction requires complete reversal. Some cases require:
• Targeted dissolving
• Structural adjustment
• Minor reshaping
Others may require more comprehensive correction. A detailed consultation with Dr. Timani determines the safest and most effective approach.
Supporting Treatments
In some cases, wrinkle relaxers such as Botox® may complement filler correction by improving facial balance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can bad filler be fixed?
In many cases, yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can often be dissolved and carefully reassessed.
How long does it take to dissolve filler?
Improvement can begin within hours, with visible changes developing over several days.
Does dissolving filler damage natural tissue?
When administered appropriately, hyaluronidase targets hyaluronic acid filler and is generally well tolerated.
Will I look worse after dissolving filler?
Temporary swelling may occur, but careful planning aims to restore natural balance, not exaggerate volume loss.
Can filler migrate?
Yes, migration can occur over time. Assessment determines whether correction is needed.
Is filler correction painful?
Discomfort is typically mild and brief. Comfort strategies are used during treatment.
