Radiesse and lip filler with a brain tumour

Question

I have a radiological occurrence of a meningioma in the sagittal sinus following surgical removal 2 years ago on the cerebellum. Now on watch and wait til Jan 2019 with radiotherapy being on the cards. Surgery also another option.I had radiesse into the chin a few months ago (before second diagnosis) but would ideally like a little more. Also considering lip filler.Would either of these procedures interfere with the effectiveness and treatment of radiotherapy(probably gamma knife) in the future?

Thank you for sharing your question. There should be no additional related health issues using Radiesse, but discuss in further detail with your treating doctors. I hope you feel better. Good luck,

Generally there is no problem receiving fillers and Radiesse with the ongoing trreatment but with all things going on concomitantly discuss these issues with your doctors prior to having treatment

From my search of the literature, no reactions in this context with Radiaesse and your condition. A risk benefit discussion should be on the table with your specialist, regardless of what is in the literature. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
