What Is Permanent Filler Removal?
Permanent Filler Removal entails the removal of permanent filler from the facial tissues. Unlike temporary dermal fillers, permanent fillers are meant to stay in place for an extended period, making their removal process difficult.
Facial Filler Removal is done by focusing on the targeted area as well as the skin and soft tissue around it. Dr. Sohrab considers these aspects before choosing the method of removal.
Why Do People Choose Permanent Filler Removal?
The motivation behind wanting filler removal is also varied. Some may have noticed a change in how the treatment site looks while others might have problems physically due to their past treatments using fillers.
Examples include:
- Unevenness or lumps: The filler causes visible or noticeable bumps under the skin.
- Swelling: There is persistent or repeated swelling in the treatment site.
- Facial changes: The filler does not fit in with one’s facial aesthetic anymore.
- Discomfort: The treatment site is feeling uncomfortable.
- Migration: The filler has shifted from where it was first injected.
- Complications: The treatment site has developed problems from previous filler treatments.
Which Areas Does Permanent Filler Removal Treat?
Depending on where the permanent filler has been placed, the treatment area will vary. First, Dr. Sohrab evaluates the problem and makes sure the type of filler is right to determine what should be done next.
Typical areas for treatment are:
- Lips – Removal of permanent filler that is undesirable in the lip area.
- Cheek area – Treatment of excess volume or bumps/lumps in the cheek area.
- Chin – Removal of filler in the chin area.
- Jawline – Filler treatment in the jawline area.
- Lower Eyelids/Under-Eye Area – Evaluation of issues related to filler placement in this area.
- Other Areas of the Face – Treatment will vary depending on the area and filler type.
Permanent Dermal Filler Removal Procedure
Depending on the substance that has been injected into the dermis, there are several methods of removing permanent dermal filler. It is important to know that permanent fillers are different from hyaluronic acid fillers; therefore, the removal procedure differs accordingly.
Surgical Filler Removal
During the surgical procedure, an incision is made for the purpose of extracting permanent filler material. When the material forms a firm mass, is deeply located in the tissue, or needs direct removal, Dr. Sohrab chooses the surgery method.
Removal of Filler-Associated Tissue
There is a possibility that the filler associates with other tissue structures or the tissue itself changes. In such cases, Dr. Sohrab evaluates the condition and removes the necessary tissues.
Plan of Treatment
Before suggesting the method of filling, Dr. Sohrab makes an evaluation of the kind of filler, location, previous treatments, skin state, and other issues.

What Happens During Permanent Filler Removal?
The process starts with the examination of the affected site and evaluation of your earlier filler injection. Dr. Sohrab will determine the position and amount of the permanent filler.
Removal of the filler is dependent on the type of filler and the surrounding tissue. In case of surgery, Dr. Sohrab will make an incision, gain access to the filler, extract the filler and suture the site.
The specific process varies from patient to patient since the permanent fillers can be of different compositions and relation to the surrounding tissues.
Recovery After Permanent Filler Removal
The process of recovery varies according to the treatment site and the mode used to eliminate the lesions.
During recovery:
Wound Care: Take care of your wounds as instructed by Dr. Sohrab.
Physical Exercise: Do not engage in strenuous exercise until Dr. Sohrab tells you to do so.
Follow-Ups: Make follow-up appointments so that Dr. Sohrab can examine your healing process.
Healing Process: Allow the tissues sufficient time to adjust as swelling goes down.
The ultimate look of the tissues takes time to develop.
Permanent Filler Removal Cost
The cost of permanent filler extraction depends on the specifics of the procedure. Several key aspects affect the total cost of the procedure, such as:
Type of Filler: Various types of fillers require various methods of treatment.
Treated Area: The location and the size of the treated area influence the procedure.
Volume of Filler: The volume of filler influences the procedure.
Surgery Complexity: The presence of scar tissue, filler migration, and alterations in adjacent tissues influence the procedure.
Anesthesia and Venue: Surgical procedures include the cost of anesthesia and surgical venue.
During the consultation, Dr. Sohrab examines the treated area and explains the procedure required and its cost.
