I had radiesse in my cheeks 4 weeks ago, yesterday I massaged and tried to countour one of the sides for a few seconds but kind of rough , now that side looks flatter! It is possible that I flat the radiesse?? I swear looks without the same shape my dr gave me :( I read and read that radiesse after 2 weeks can not move or mold, but why my face looks different now????? Please advice :)
Answer: Nonmobile radiuses I absolutely agree with my colleagues, the Radiesse didn't move after 4 weeks. Something I see quite a bit though is that my patients like the way they look a couple days after injection (when there is some additional swelling) then when the swelling subsides, they come back asking for a bit more. Hope this helps! Dr. Robb

Answer: 1 month after Radiesse Thank you for your question.It is very unlikely that at 4 weeks out, you massaging did anything to the Radiesse. My first question would be, do you also sleep on that side? If so putting pressure on that area when you sleep may be the cause as to why it looks flatter on that side. I would suggest seeing your injector again to discuss your options. Good luck.

Answer: Radiesse and Results--Flattening--See an Expert It sounds as if you may have flattened it some. If injected properly, this filler has fantastic results and gives very good long term outcomes. I would consult an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Molding Of Radiesse After Injection Two weeks is a general time frame during which radiesse can be shaped and molded, however there are many variables that influence that including the location in which it is injected,the degree of motion of the soft tissues at that location, the depth at which it is injected, the technique used in injecting it, the volume of local anesthesia that is mixed with the radiesse, the degree of bleeding, bruising, swelling and inflammation associated with the injection, etc. However, the most common reason why your face looks different after the injection is the subsidence of the immediate swelling and inflammation after the initial injection.

Answer: . No, you did not move your filler. Thank you for your question. No, you did not move your filler. After 4 weeks is when collagen stimulation should be happening. Also at this time all swelling and bruising should be resolved. This is probably why you are seeing less volume in your cheeks now. Also, after injection most doctors will massage the treated area(s) to reduce lumps and bumps and to spread the filler more evenly. However, these not recommend to be done by the patient. I recommend having a follow up with injector to have this evaluated and possibly treated. Best of Luck!
