CARE GUIDELINES

Dissolve and Resolve Protocol Care Guide

Because this protocol spans two phases, dissolving unwanted filler and then rebuilding with a fresh plan, following aftercare closely at each step helps your tissue settle cleanly before moving forward.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why Aftercare Matters for Your Results

Skipping proper healing time between the dissolving and resolve phases can affect how evenly your new filler settles, so patience and consistent aftercare across both phases are key to your final result.
