I have had Radiesse put under my eyes and came up with redness and bumps. Will this REALLY go away. I hate to look at myself and explain it. I'm very depresses over this!! It has been 2 an half mo. I'm hoping I don't have to wait a year or more. I can't stand what happened and is their an answer out their??
Radiesse® (calcium hydroxyapatite). Is chemically found in bone and dental enamel. Radiesse® lasts over a year. Aggressive massage in the area may be beneficial. The bottom line is to go back and discuss your results with your treating physician/injector.
Thanks for your question.
Radiesse is known as calcium hydroxyapatite. It is similar in structure to dental enamel. It is quite biocompatible, but because of its thicker nature needs to be placed in the deep dermal layer of the skin. When injected, it is roughly 70% gel carrier and 30% active ingredient.
In most cases it takes 10-12 weeks for the absorbable carrier gel to go away. A good amount of the product injected into your under eye region should go away. But I would recommend aggressive massage.
Occasionally, if the Radiesse is too superficial, a 16 or 18 gauge needle can be used to make a small incision in the skin to milk out the Radiesse.
