What Is a Filler Edit? Think Refinement vs ‘Erasing’…
Over the last decade, dermal fillers have helped millions of people restore lost volume, enhance facial features, and create beautifully balanced profiles. But as with any aesthetic treatment, goals and products evolve—and so does our understanding of facial harmony. That’s where Filler Editing comes in.
At MPWR Aesthetics & Wellness, we believe dissolving filler isn’t a setback—it’s simply part of the artistry of refinement.
What Is Filler Editing?
Filler Editing is a specialized treatment designed to dissolve hyaluronic acid (HA) filler when a reset or refinement is desired. Over time, filler can migrate, settle differently than intended, or simply no longer align with your current goals.
Instead of viewing dissolving as “undoing” work, we see it as a thoughtful edit—a way to bring your features back into balance and prepare for future enhancements that feel fresh and natural.
Why Someone Might Choose a Filler Edit
There are several reasons someone may consider this treatment:
Evolving aesthetic goals: You may want a softer, more natural look than when you first started.
Maintenance over time: HA filler can shift subtly over months or years. Editing allows for ongoing precision and artistry.
Creating a clean canvas: Some patients opt to dissolve before refilling, ensuring a smooth, balanced foundation for new treatments.
Each plan is customized to the individual—there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.
How Filler Editing Works
The treatment uses a prescription enzyme called hyaluronidase, which specifically targets and breaks down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. When injected in precise amounts, it selectively dissolves filler in the treated area without affecting your body’s natural HA long-term.
Your provider at MPWR will assess the area, determine the ideal dosage, and guide you through the process. Depending on the amount and type of filler, results are often visible within 24–48 hours.
What to Expect After Treatment
Mild swelling or tenderness can occur for a day or two.
You may notice the area softening or contouring differently as the filler dissolves.
Most patients resume normal activities quickly.
If you plan to refill, it’s typically best to wait 1–2 weeks for tissue to fully settle before reinjecting.
The MPWR Approach: Artistry Meets Intention
At MPWR Aesthetics, we view Filler Editing as a creative correction, not a correction of “mistakes.” Our goal is to help you feel confident and aligned with your reflection—whether that means refreshing, refining, or starting anew.
You’re not starting over—you’re evolving.
