Hi everyone. I had Radiesse injected into my forehead due to an indentation from a kenalog shot. For almost 7 weeks I had a lump the size of a jaw breaker and was mortified to be seen in public. I was only told to ice it and massage in the beggining and the bump remained. I found a website that recommended vibration to be used to help metabolize it. The doc suggested using a tooth brush but mine was not charged so get ready for this I used a vibrator...I know I should be embarrassed to even admit to using it on my forehead but it worked. My bump is almost completely flat!!!! I called my doc and Radiesse to ask them why they don't recommend this and they said vibration works for certain kinds of bumps. I was pissed that I walked around for 7 weeks when there was a simple solution right under my bed:) BTW the vib works wonders when you are congested (sinuses):) Anyway, ask your Doc if you are not to embarrassed. If you use the toothbrush be sure to have a barrier between your skin and the brush. Good Day!!
