Yes, they will disappear over time. Unfortunately, there is not a product that can be used to dissolve Radiesse like there is for some of the other injectable fillers. It may take many months for the lumps to fade but will go away eventually.
Radiesse is a stimulatory filler that is an excellent option for patients who desire a longer-lasting filler alternative to hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. In our office, we use Radiesse to complement structural areas of the face and contour bony prominences. Our office also is a center of excellence for filler complication treatments and we see patients who have been treated by other doctors and have undesirable results from Radiesse or other long-lasting fillers. We have treatment options available for Radiesse filler nodules, granulomas, and soft tissue thickening. The first step would be to diagnose the nodularity and determine whether there is an option for surgical vs. non-surgical removal. Surgical excision is a possibility in some patients; whereas others with more diffuse fillers may benefit from intralesional therapy using scar modulators and enzymes and kenalog. Radiesse complications may be long-lasting and prompt action is key. Patients who have no access to an expert in the field should begin gentle massage of the areas of nodularity with Plato’s Scar Serum twice daily. RF and invasive lasers can actually do more damage by stimulating further collagen growth. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianRealself100 Surgeon

A cortisone injection can also help smooth out the product.
I would recommend following up with your provider to discuss options for treating the lumps you have.
Try massaging the lumps between your thumb and forefinger a few times a day. the lumps will eventually go away and sometimes injection with cortisone will make it go away faster
Thank you for your question, from the pictures you provided it looks like you would benefit from a “cheek lift” with Radiesse. Depending on how much volume and lift you would like is the amount of filler the provider would need to use. Since it is your first time 1.5cc sounds like a good sta...
The chronologic age is, of course, not the only consideration; others are the type and thickness of skin, sun damage, etc. You would need to be seen in person by a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist for a full and complete evaluation. Radiesse can give a nice improvement a...
