I am very unhappy with the results of my Radiesse injections. Before the injections I looked 10 years younger than my 67 years. Now I look older than my 67 years. I am a very active person, working out rigorously at the gym daily. Will rigorous exercise expedite the dissolving process of the Radiesse? Also, considering my age, will my face return to it's youthful appearance once the Radiesse is dissolved or am I doomed to look older than my years now?

Answer: What Can I Do to Expedite the Elimination of Radiesse?
Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to dissolve Radiesse, fillers can vary from each individual but typically last 8-12 months. There is no definite evidence that exercising will shorten the longevity of your injectables, the best option for you is to wait it out till it dissolves on its own. It may be that you're still swollen, give it a few more weeks to settle before seeing your final result.

Answer: How to get rid of Radiesse Unfortunately there is no counter product to Radiesse, which can be intensely frustrating when you don't like it. Other fillers that are made of hyaluronic acid like Restylane and Juvederm can be dissolved, but there is no product to dissolve Radiesse. I am unsure when you had the injections, or where they were done on your face, so perhaps if you can post some photos we can help guide you to some other possible options. But there is no way to get rid of Radiesse other than time. It will go away in time and won't have any permanent effects so when it's gone you will return to what it looked like before.
