Cons: No visible improvement; bruising; expensive. Pros: Can't see/think of any yet. I am a performer, so looks matter. I wanted to look youthful because I missed out on so much in younger years.

Since you mentioned that one cheek bone seems more prominent to you (I'm assuming that is the area you had the Radiesse injected into) and that you wish you had consulted with a board certified plastic surgeon, have you considered visiting one to see if things can be evened out?
Please keep us posted on how it goes. At this point would you feel comfortable allowing the nurse to try to even things out if she offers to do so?
