Background:
The aesthetic treatment based on fillers with hyaluronic acid presents an increasing demand in the present day because it is considered a safe and minimally invasive procedure. In the management of adverse effects or more severe complications of hyaluronic acid-based fillers, hyaluronidase is the treatment of choice.
Aims:
To demonstrate efficacy in reversibility and safety in the treatment of HA complications.
Patients/Methods:
It is a retrospective study article that reports the use of hyaluronidase in the main undesirable effects of fillers in 114 patients in a private dermatological clinic from 2015 to 2018.
Results:
The target of the application was 51 cases of overcorrection (45%), 50 cases of Tyndall effect (44%), and 13 late nodules (11%). When we evaluated the areas where HYAL was injected, we found that the area with the most indication of the application of the product was the eyelid region (58 injections).
Conclusion:
This study concluded that HYAL is a safe and effective drug in the management of mild adverse events of HA applications with no severe side effects in our protocol of use.

Glycosaminoglycans
GAGS are found in the extracellular matrix of vertebrates, invertebrates, and bacteria. Due to their polar nature they attract water, and serve as excellent lubricants or shock absorbers in an animal body.

Hydrolysis
Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction in which the addition of water breaks down a polymer into its simpler monomer units. For example, peptides break into amino acids, carbohydrates into simple sugars, and DNA into nucleotides. Enzymes often facilitate these processes.
Hydrolysis Reverses Dehydration Synthesis
Complex carbohydrates can be broken down by breaking the bonds between individual sugar units. The reaction breaks a glycosidic bond as water is added to the compound. The...
