I’ve had 0.5ml of Restylane injected on my nasabial folds and 0.5 above my cheeks in 2016. At the time, my weight was 48 kilos (5’2’’), and fast-forward 7 years and having become a mother, I have gained 6 kilos. I also have PoTS and a diet high on sodium as recommended by my doctor. I’ve recently consulted a well-known injector who said I’m over-filled and had a bad job, but I think it’s just my weight gain and my natural feautures (high cheek bones). Could that be the case?

You can consider having the Restylane dissolved if you are unhappy with the treatment, but the Radiesse is not an HA filler and cannot be dissolved. For that you will need to wait for it to be metabolized naturally.
If you are seeing improvement with your current treatment plan it is probably best to continue it versus trying something new that may not yield results that you like. I encourage you to speak with your injector to discuss options. You can consider fillers again, fat grafting, and medical...
Thank you for sharing your question. After dissolving filler it can be injected again in a few days. Make sure an expert injector performs the treatment. I hope this helps.
Good luck,
