    Hi Jean34,

    I am a little better but still have a lump under one eye and the white radiesse is showing through the skin, it's been 18 months and it is a little better, but now the skin under my eyes is baggy and wrinkled. I have been in touch with bioform again recently and they said they now have a black box warning not to use radiesse under the eyes because so many people had problems. Wish they had figured it out before we had it done. Are you any better?

    It's been 2 months now for me and still no improvement. I took steroids for a week and have had two v-beam laser treatments and still look the same. I have a number for Radiesse customer service if anyone wants it. I'm hoping they will have some answers for me.

    I had radiesse injected under the eyes by a board certified plastic surgeon. I have huge red bags under both eyes and one is more raised than the other, looks horrible and impossible to hide with concealer. First the Dr gave me oral steroids, then suggested removing the filler with small incisions, I was afraid of more damage so he suggested the v-beam laser. I've had it twice and can't see any difference. My Dr is blaming my bodies reaction to the radiesse as if I'm the only one that reacted this way. I don't know what to do at this point? Getting more depressed, It looks bad and feels irritated.

    I'm having the same radiess nightmare. Red large blisters under both eyes. Dr says he can make a small incision to remove some, doesn't sound like a very good idea to me, probably have a scar on top of everything else. It's been 4 weeks. Have you had any improvement? Is there any legal recourse?
