I've read that since Radiesse doesn't dissolve naturally, you can be left with lumps and bumps after treatment. Is this true?
Answer: Radiesse has a high safety profile in injected in the right tissue plane: Outcome of Radiesse Radiesse is a collagen stimulatory product combined with a facial filler. It is safely used on the tissues of the face to restore facial harmony and counteract the effects of age related facial atrophy. If care is taken to carefully inject Radiesse in the correct tissue plane, the risk profile is very low and the benefits are outstanding.

Answer: Radiesse Lumps With any type of injectable filler there can be a risk of lumps. The product has to be injected correctly and at the right depths to minimize the risk of lumps and bumps and give you great results. Radiesse is not ideal for injection at all areas of the face, so you should obtain a consultation to see what products are right for your needs.

Answer: Radiesse is not dangerous when injected properly When injected properly by a skilled, board-certified dermatologist, the risk of lumps from Radiesse is very low, and results can be very good. Poor Radiesse results generally occur when it is injected into the wrong area of the face by a doctor with poor technique. Radiesse does dissolve naturally; it stimulates the body to produce more collagen, which allows for long lasting results, but Radiesse generally disappears after around 18 months. This can be longer or shorter depending on the patient and the amount of product injected.

Answer: Other products better for smile lines Radiesse is wonderful for lifting, contouring the face (cheeks, temples, jaw and mid face) as well as the backs of the hands. It would not be ideal for lines around the mouth. Juvederm would be a better choice in this area.

Answer: Radiesse safety
Radiesse is a very safe filler in the right hands. It provides significant volumization of the face that persists longer than its competitors. Lumps and bumps can occur if the product is placed too superficially in the face or if placed around the eyes or lips. It is a temporary filler and lasts 13 months on average so does resorb over time.

Answer: Radiesse Concerns
Radiesse is an excellent filler if skillfully injected. It is a active filler, in that it stimulates collagen formation. The calcium crystals in it break down naturally after two years. It is one of the best volumizers, and cc per cc, when compared with hyaluronic acid has the best value.
Radiesse should be avoided under the eyes, in the tear trough, and in the lips.
