“Radiesse in Cheeks - Love It!”

who was the doctor you used?

I have been getting Radiesse injections in the cheeks and nasolabial area for about 4 years and liked the results. However, I also noticed that for the last couple of years I have been having increased joint's pain, significant fatigue (sleepy all the time, I am driving to the food store and thinking about how much I would like to be sleeping in my bed). I had pain in the fingers of both hands, in particular in the thumbs, also strong pain in my right elbow for about 6 months, and pain in my feet upon getting up from bed in the mornings. I had been attributing all these problems to starting menopause. What made me shift my suspicions to another direction is when I did not get the Radiesse injections after 3 months the way I had been doing for the last few years, but instead I had it about 7 months after the last injection. Well, for the first time in months, or maybe even in a couple of years, I had no feet or joints pain, no fatigue, no constant sleepingness, the weekness in my elbows went away. I have also researching on side effects of dermal fillers, and found a lot of literature about autoimmune problems related to these types of products. I wonder if this is a coincidence, I wonder if I am the only one who suspects that the dermal filler I am using may be responsible for my joints pain and my fatigue. I just had another injection done a few days ago after that 7-month pause and I fear that all the problems will come back, even though my cheeks look good...
