Dear Carrie-
By the time you read this, your Radiesse lump may be gone. But if not, please read on! If you have a noticeable lump 4-5 days after Radiesse injection, massaging the area with a finger in your mouth (between your your thumb and forefinger) with help tremendously. Do this 3 times daily for 5-10 seconds and you will soon notice the product laying flatter and smoother under your skin. It should eventually blend in with no lumpiness. You should also let your physician know because he/she may want to see you in the office to reassure you and coach you how best to perform the massage.
Fortunately, Radiesse has the consistency of a malleable paste that is very amenable to massage. Unlike Restylane or Perlane, there are no enzyme injections that can make Radiesse go away, so only time and massage work for Radiesse lumps.
