Just had radiesse injected for laugh lines wrinkles. My dermatologist also filled in the cheek area to lift the heavy fold. I hate the results. Looks like I had cheek implants and it looks terrible. It's been 4 days and the "swelling" has not come down. Any advice on how to reverse it? Is there anything I can do to help the stuff metabolize faster?

Am I alone if having complications from Radiesse? Who else has seen Radiess side effects?

Does anyone know how long radiesse last under eyes? are they get to be permanent when they injected under eye area.

Injectable fillers are popular non-surgical treatments to enhance and refresh your look. There are no shortage of options either, with multiple treatments producing similar results. The question becomes which injectable is right for you. Radiesse is an FDA-approved filler commonly used to treat wrinkles and lines around your mouth, hollows in your cheeks, and loose skin on the back of your...

I had this done on advice of an aesthetician of a PS with whom I had previously agreed to use Juvaderm for tear troughs. She must have been incentivised to sell it as I went ahead assuming it was another brand of hyaluronic acid.  Be warned: 1. It migrates - mine moved from my hollows under my eyes up on one side and down on the other after about 2 weeks.  The same happened on an...

What is your experience with radiesse injection? would you do radiesse again? 

I don't want to bother my doctor on Sat. I just had Radiesse for the first time on Friday. I am wondering if this is swelling or if it needs to be evened out. The side that appears swollen to me, also has scar tissue on it from an accident, so, maybe I am just more aware of it. Would love to hear some opinions

I am extremely upset that my $1,100 worth of Radiesse only lasted 5 months.  It made a dramatic difference and I got compliments all the time and now I am extremely disappointed that it didn't last longer.  I thought it would last at least 10-12 months.  I have had Restalyne and it lasted much longer and was a lot less than the Radiesse.     I explained my predicament...

I had Radiesse injections in my cheeks (closer to nose) which is suppose to help hide the bags under my eyes. Well it's been 24 Hours since the procedure and i look like a Chipmunk!!! i'm scared to death this is not going to go away. Has anybody out there experienced this and if so did it go away???  

I had Radiesse injected into my tear troughs and area between my lower lip and chin/jawline to the tune of 800 dollars.  Lower part of my face looks good.  I have a horizontal ridge, however, just below my tear trough, however and an odd dimple just beneath it that gets accentuated when I smile.  I called the doctor and left messages once in the early morning and once in the...

I wanted to know if the chipmunk feeling is normal? I have hard cheeks and I look like a cross between the joker and a chipmunk ? Help! I'm freaked out?! Thank you

I am very sick after having a radiesse injection

I had radiesse injected under my eyes and had a bizarre reaction. It migrated to the tear trough, I look like I have been punched in the face, as it has been 1 month and I am still looking very, very bruised. Also, I have been on steroids because the swelling has been so bad I can barely open my eyes in the morning. It is much better on the steroids, but when I go off of them, the swelling...

My friend is looking for any level of support for this reaction to Radisse injections. She is that one in one million. Any medical advice would be greatly appreciated. She is experiencing pain as well, and her gums are starting to see some effects as well. Thank you!

How many of you had no side affects after the treatment? Or just minimal? My Dr. said I can return to work right after the treatment, and no one would notice what I did on my lunch break. I am getting my nasolabial folds treated, and only need very little radiesse. What was your experience right after the injections? Thank you.

I had my laugh lines injected and the pain was pretty bad. It stayed red for a week but 2 days after I had it done I noticed something between my inner eye and the bridge of my nose. It looked like a long vein sticking out. I can cover the reddness with make up but it's buldging out. I went back to the doctor who injected me and he had no idea what it was but said give it 3 weeks and if it...

I am now 6 wks post Radiesse injections that were administered just above my upper cheek bones to treat the tear trough area of my face.  I now know that most PS do not recommend this filler to be used in this area due to problems.....unfortunately for me, I guess this is one of them.  Can anyone please tell me if the 'slight staining' that appears to be a reddish/rusty color will...

I hate the results it's has been more than a year and a half and the Lumos are huge and I'm depressed and I don't want to wait it out I have had already 4 injectons of hyaluronidase to remove the filler in my lips because my lips were also improperly filled. I am mortified to take pictures. I will no longer wait for the other filler to be removed because the person who filled me misled me and...
