Would Radiesse balance out the symmetry in my face and make me look younger? (Photos)

Question

I see a lot of asymmetry in my face and it’s long. Would one syringe of radiese balance my face out, and I feel like I have volume loss. I feel like my jawline could use some. I have used it before for the nasolabial folds and it is something I would like to use as it’s long lasting. I’m just wondering where it would be suggested in my face I feel like a little in the cheeks to fix asymmetry and in the chin and what procedures I should ask for? Honesty appreciated! Ty

Hi! I see what you're talking about. Radiesse is a great product for work along the jawline and cheeks. It works to stimulate collagen and is best placed deeply on the bone. Other hyaluronic acid fillers can work nicely too and can be dissolved if unsightly. Sculptra works well too but can create nodules in some individuals. Morpheus8 microneedling RF can tone the skin and smooth it which may be a good compliment to the above. Hope that helps!

A formal evaluation would be needed to determine what's best. Asymmetry can be treated with injectable fillers. Fillers like Radiesse, Voluma, BellaFill as well as Sculptra are injected into the area, improving the overall appearance of the face and balancing the jaw and lip harmony. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert; our practice is located right here in Los Angeles. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, my name is Dr. Burko and I am a Plastic Surgeon at SY Aesthetics in NYC. I like to assess a patient by viewing their face in multiple different angles. It is hard to make a judgement when only looking at one view of the face. Radiesse is often a great option for cheeks and nasolabial folds as it promotes collagen and elastin at the area of injection. My recommendation is for you to see a trained plastic surgeon who can make an assessment and give you their best treatment plan.

Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photos. It’s difficult to determine what procedures would be best for you due to the chin down direction of the photos. In general, Radiesse is great for giving volume and Restylane  is good for smoothing out indentations. Make an appointment for in person evaluation and discussion of potential options with an experienced oculofacial surgeon.
Good luck,

You will benefit a lot from Radiesse filler in the holes you can see around the chin and jawline. Your chin will look less pronounced.

Only 1 syringe of Radeisse?????? You recommend at least 5-10 syringes to be effective in correcting asymmetry of face and adding lost volume. Usually fees given per syringe so expect at least $6,000+ .Best to virtual consult with.... might consider adding mini FL?
