How Long After Radiesse is Injected in Marionette Lines Should I Expect to See Results?

Question

I had Radiesse injected into my marionette lines a week ago and don't see any difference. How long do I have to wait to see improvement?

Steven H. Williams, MD · Answer

Radiesse, like most other fillers, should give you an instantaneous result along with some initial swelling that reduces over the next few days. Sometimes more filler might be required in order to see a more visible result. Consult with your injector to see what the best option for you would be or if a different product or approach would better suit your needs.

Jon M. Grazer, MD, MPH, FACS · Answer

Radisse should be injected to complete correction. What you see is what you get at the time of injection. Radiesse works quite well in the marionette lines, but if not skilfully injected can make you look like a chipmunk.

Stephen Prendiville, MD · Answer

Radiesse results should be immediately apparent. If no result is noted, it is usually related to insufficient volume of Radiesse injected, or possible to poor technique.  Radiesse typically works very well for marionette lines.

Sam Naficy, MD, FACS · Answer

Results with Radiesse are immediate.  If you do not see any difference at this point, you are likely not going to see any further changes.  Furthermore, I would definitely recommend using a softer filler around the mouth area - such as Juvederm or Restylane.  These softer fillers are much more natural feeling around the mouth.  We do not recommend Radiesse for use in the lips or around the mouth.

Daniel J. Ladd Jr., DO · Answer

Radiesse is a filler that works to add volume deep below your skin.  Sometimes if your wrinkle is closer to the surface you might need a more superficial filler in addition to Radiesse. 

 Examples of these include Resylane, Juvederm.  These are the softer fillers the other physicians are talking about.  However the Radiesse you received should still help you to achieve your goal, just at a deeper level.
