Hello Doctors, I had radiesse placed 09/24/17 to cheeks and lower eyes (unknowingly). I very much dislike and want it removed. I am aware that there is no antidote for removal. Is there anything that you have performed on a patient that has been successful? I greatly appreciate your time. I'm desperate. Kind Regards
Answer: See oculoplastics specialist Removing the Radiesse (surgically) may or may not be the best approach. Personal examination is very important to decide on the best approach.

Answer: Radiesse Removal 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.

Answer: Radiesse / Calicum Hydroxylapetite / Filler Reversal There is no way to reverse radiesse. I suggest seeing your physician for radiofrequency treatments, hyperbaric oxygen, saline injections, and possibly steroids/5fu. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Can Radiesse be Removed? Hi Sugi. Sorry to hear about your situation. There is no easy way to remove Radiesse and surgical removal is the best way. The problem is you will be left with a scar of some sort and therefore we would not recommend it in your situation. The product wil dissolve over the course of a year.

Answer: Radiesse Removal Hi, thank you for your question. Unfortunately there is no reversal agent for Radiesse. The good news is that these products will go away in time. Perhaps a year in this area. Should you consider fillers in the future look towards Hyaluronic Acid fillers...they can be removed. Good luck.
