Radiesse in the Lips

Not Worth It
Spent: $500 in California

My experience was horrible. I trusted the doctors office to do their job right. The nurse he hired injected the wrong product in my left side of my upper lip. I have swelling, bruising, lop sided, white bumps. I look deformed. The only response the doctor had for me is wait and see. They do not know what will happen. I just want to know if it will ever be normal again or did I do permanent damage to my lips?

If Radiesse was injected on one side of my lip, will it leave permanent damage to it? I have bruising, swelling, white bumps. It looks uneven. I am so worried it will not go away. The doctor doesn't know. He said to just wait and see. Please help.

I would not recommend placing Radiesse in the lips for the exact reasons you describes. Juvederm or Restylane or any hyaluronic acid is best for lip augmentation.

Question:Radiesse in the Lips? Answer: Radiesse should never be used in the lips. Small firm nodules may develop and they are difficult to manage.
