I had Bellafill injected into my temples and my cheeks two weeks ago. My right jaw is very sore. Should I be concerned?

Bellafill filler can cause nodules and chronic edema, soft tissue reaction, and longterm problems. We specialize in the removal of Bellafill on the face and see patients with old and new PMMA filler problems. Bellafill will eventually form scar tissue around the permanent filler. We recommend a combination approach of filler reversal with enzymes, corticosteroids, and scar tissue modulators. Our HIDEF approach can break down filler scarring and granulomas so that they are less apparent. If the filler material itself does not dissolve, it either means the filler is unresponsive to conservative therapy. This technique may be followed by surgical removal of the filler if there is a suitable target for removal and the chance of scarring is low. We remove Bellafill filler from the lips, nasolabial folds, and eyelids. Cheek Bellafill is difficult to remove surgically.

It is not unusual to have some soreness in the jaw after a filler injection into the temples.  I would say in most cases, this usually resolves in a week or so though.  If you feel the jaw soreness is not improving at this point, I would recommend contacting the physician who treated you with the Bellafill so that you can be examined in person.  

This is difficult to answer without pictures. It would be unusual for Bellafill to cause soreness in an area that hasn't been injected, but I recommend following up with your injector for a formal evaluation. Keep in mind, it will take several months for final results with Bellafill. Best, Dr. Emer
