“Horrible experience with radiesse”

Do not get this filler!  I had it injected into my naso-labial folds in July of 08 and within a few days I developed huge red hives at the injection sites which  gradually went away but left small tiny visible veins.  A few weeks later large acne type granulomas appeared which had to be injected with cortisone shots and are still present to date.  My doctor never informed me of any possible side effects and if she had I would never have put this poison in my face.  Please before you ever decide to have this procedure done make sure you ask about any reported complications and get more than one opinion.
