I wanted to comment because I had the exact same experience- my face was also swollen and 'jowly' after Radiesse. I had it injected in the marionette lines at the side of my nose and mouth. For almost 2 weeks my lower cheeks looked puffy and 'jowly' but eventually it went down and now everything looks good. This was the first time I had Radiesse, previously I've had Restalyne which isn't as thick and doesn't cause as much swelling or take as long for the swelling to subside. So now I know and won't be as freaked out if I ever decide to do this again.
