Removal of non-surgical foreign materials such as incorrect Juvederm, Artecoll, threads, etc.
BA Clinic's unique removal solution that minimizes tissue damage through non-surgical methods. This procedure is for cases involving fillers that are not dissolvable (hyaluronic acid fillers).


BA Clinic's foreign material removal procedure is conducted with a 1:1 consultation with the director first.
1. Why is 'Removal' Necessary?
If non-absorbable fillers (Juvederm, Artecoll) or threads are injected incorrectly, the following changes may occur over time:
Recurrent swelling and inflammation
Hard nodules (lumps) or uneven surfaces
Asymmetry and collapse of facial lines
Tugging, tenderness, and skin discomfort
Tone changes and induration formation due to tissue reaction
These problems are difficult to resolve naturally,
requiring professional removal and correction.
2. BA Clinic's Standard for 'Non-Surgical Removal'
BA Clinic removes, dissolves, and corrects foreign materials solely through needles, cannulas, and injections, without any incisions.
In other words,
No incision,
No scarring,
Minimized recovery period,
Minimized tissue damage,
These four points are key.
3. Removal Method – How it's done without incisions
① Softening Fibrosis and Stabilizing Inflammation Around Foreign Material
Foreign materials injected incorrectly can be difficult to remove immediately due to surrounding hardened tissue.
BA Clinic first stabilizes the tissue in the following steps:
Micro-adhesion (fibrosis) softening injection
Inflammation control injection
Use of a solution to soften the hardness of surrounding tissues
This process alone can soften nodules
and make them accessible with needles or cannulas.
② Non-Surgical Foreign Material Removal Using Needles/Cannulas
If the foreign material is palpable or its location is somewhat identifiable,
we safely attempt removal with needles or cannulas without incisions.
'Aspiration' removal: Gradually expelling the foreign material in a mass form through a needle
'Dispersion/Dissolution' removal: Using a cannula to break down the fibrous membrane, transforming residual substances embedded in the tissue into a state that can be removed.
Thread removal: Palpating the end of the thread remaining close to the skin
and selectively removing it with needle access only.
Aspiration, dissolution, and tissue management are all performed without incisions.
Key Point:
BA Clinic's technology lies in assessing the texture, location, and fixation degree of foreign materials based on palpation, even without incisions,
and selectively removing only what is necessary.
③ Post-Removal Line Restoration and Secondary Correction
It's not just about removing the foreign material;
it includes releasing pre-existing hardened tissues/adhesions and restoring natural lines.
Micro-dissection (releasing adhesions)
Regenerative injection
Correctional injection for volume realignment if necessary
We provide a complete process from removal to tissue stabilization and line restoration.
4. Why is it done in multiple sessions?
If nodules or fibrosis are severe, aggressive removal in one session
can paradoxically cause depressions, asymmetry, or skin damage.
BA Clinic proceeds safely in the following stages:
Stage 1: Inflammation stabilization and tissue softening
Stage 2: Non-surgical foreign material removal
Stage 3: Line restoration and secondary correction
The plan is adjusted at intervals of 4 to 12 weeks depending on the patient's tissue condition.
5. Changes That May Occur After Removal
Temporary swelling and bruising
Changes felt as hardened tissue softens
The process of the shape settling after removal
Differences in recovery speed due to pre-existing fibrosis
Generally, stabilization occurs within 1 to 3 weeks.
6. Who Needs This Procedure?
When the area around the foreign material feels hard
When chronic swelling and inflammation recur
When asymmetry needs correction
When lines have been distorted by old fillers or threads
When concerned about whether it's possible without incisions
7. BA Clinic's Differentiating Factors
① Expertise in Incisionless, Non-Surgical Removal
Using needle and cannula-based approaches,
we remove or dissolve foreign materials in the precise area without scarring.
② Step-by-Step Approach Prioritizing Tissue Preservation
We avoid aggressive removal in one session,
minimizing tissue damage and planning for recovery.
③ Solution Including Post-Removal Reconstruction
It's not just simple removal;
we focus on recreating natural-looking lines.
8. When Can Re-treatment Be Performed After Removal?
Tissue stabilization typically takes 4 to 8 weeks.
After that, if necessary,
Partial volume correction
Line re-alignment
Treatment to improve elasticity and texture
can be performed in stages.
