Benefits of a Hylase Treatment
Hylase, or hyaluronidase, is an enzyme that can dissolve hyaluronic acid. It is a naturally occurring substance in the body that converts cross-linked hyaluronic acid into a liquid, water-like consistency.
What Is Hylase and What Is It Used For?
Hyaluronic acid is widely used in modern aesthetic medicine for volume enhancement, facial contouring, wrinkle correction, and lip injections.
Corrections of injections
Hylase is utilized to dissolve unwanted lumps or reverse hyaluronic acid injections.
Emergency medication for vascular occlusions
In emergency situations, such as vascular occlusions caused by hyaluronic acid, Hylase is injected to restore blood flow. However, with careful application, appropriate anatomical knowledge, and experience, such complications are rare.
What Is Important During a Hylase Treatment?
It is crucial to rely on the expertise of the treating doctors during a Hylase treatment. Improper use of Hylase can lead to the breakdown of the body’s own hyaluronic acid, resulting in dents or other issues. Therefore, a detailed consultation before treatment is essential.
Other potential causes should be ruled out, especially when correcting lump formations. At Traumpraxis Hamburg, only trained specialists will perform your treatment.
Treatment with Hylase in Our Practice
The reasons for seeking Hylase treatment vary, ranging from minor corrections to the complete reversal of a hyaluronic acid injection.
Consultation
The amount of enzyme required depends on the specific reason for treatment. A thorough and personal consultation is vital, during which we will inform you about the benefits and risks of the method.
Treatment
The treatment itself typically takes no longer than 15 minutes and is largely painless. However, a suitable cream can be used to anesthetize the skin if necessary.
Aftercare
The results of Hylase treatment are usually visible within a few hours to a day. In rare cases, the breakdown of hyaluronic acid may take slightly longer than 24 hours. Initial swelling may mask the results, often due to the skin’s reaction to the needle pricks. This swelling is temporary and should subside on its own after a few hours or days.
The Side Effects and Risks of Hylase
Hylase generally has few side effects. However, it’s important to understand that the enzyme does not distinguish between synthetic hyaluronic acid used in aesthetic medicine and the body’s own hyaluronic acid.
If Hylase is injected into untreated areas or used in excess, it can lead to unnecessary degradation of the body’s own hyaluronic acid.
