Can I get Ultherapy with Radiesse fillers?

Question

I had fillers placed under my eyes. The Dr. used Radiesse and my eyes look worse. It has been 2 1/2 years and the medicine still shows. I considered undergoing Ultherapy to try to expedite dissolving the product. Is this a smart choice?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Fillers can be done at the same time as ultherapy.  I suggest speaking to your physician before treatment.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately, Radiesse is not the best filler to use underneath the eyes. Unlike the Hyaluronic Acid fillers it is also not reversible. Ultherapy can be used to tighten any loose skin in the area, but it is not a treatment to dissolve fillers. The Ultherapy would have no effect on the Radiesse. The best thing to do would be to see a physician in your area that has experience with filler complications and can guide you on the appropriate next steps. Best wishes.

I would not recommend trying to use Ultherapy to dissolve Radiesse. This is unlikely to work and could result in additional problems. You should consult with a physician injector and discuss your concerns. There are likely other options to improve your under eye concerns.

While Ultherapy can be an effective treatment for tightening the skin in the correct patient, I have not heard of it being used to help dissolve Radiesse or any other filler.  I am not certain the Ultherapy would have any effect on the Radiesse.
