Radiesse: Q&A

Does this make sense and is it something that is commonly done? The injector who did my cheeks says that's not how it's used.

Radiesse and non-surgical facial contouring for cheeks or jawline
Generally when attempting to treat the jowls with non-surgical techniques the filler is placed just in front of the jowl (in the labiamandibular or "pre-jowl" area.) Although filling the cheeks may "lift" the jowl, it would likely take tremendous volume.
