Hello, I'm interested in getting Bellafill for my smile lines, 1 syringe on each side. I'm wondering how long does the swelling usually lasts right after the injection? I also want to use Radiesse for a chin augmentation. Is Radiesse semi permanent/not dissolvable? Thanks.
Answer: Swelling Thank you for your question. Downtime is 2 weeks. Most patients will experience swelling and bruising for the first couple of days which can last up to two weeks.

Answer: Expertise in Bellafill complications and granulomas Bellafill and Artefill are known to cause granulomas. Although used for soft tissue augmentation, they can, and are known to cause permanent nodules and swelling. This is not the case for everyone.

Answer: Swelling after injections Thank you for your question. Swelling can occur for a few hours after treatment but this varies from patient to patient. You may be able to use Motrin to relieve the swelling. Radiesse is a great option for you since results have been shown to last a year or more in many patients, making the treatment long-lasting. Hope this helps. All the best

Answer: How long does swelling last after Bellafill? The amount of swelling that someone might get after a filler injection, such as Bellafill, can vary. I would say in most cases when there is some swelling after the injection, that it usually goes away within a day or two. I find that Radiesse does work well for augmenting the chin, but the result is not permanent. I would say the results could last a year or so.

Answer: Bellafill Swelling; Radiesse For The Chin Thank you for contacting us.This is always a question worth asking with any filler. Unlike the often noticeable temporary swelling from Restylane or Juvederm, my experience going back to our FDA trials has shown essentially no temporary swelling with Bellafill by patient or physician assessment, because of the absence of hyaluronic acid. Regarding Radiesse: it generally lasts a bout 12-18 months &,, since it is essentially synthetic bone substance, is excellent for chin & cheekbone augmentation. Radiesse effects are only partially dissolvable by local steroid injections: this is rarely done by most physicians. Bellafill can be used also in these areas with similar benefit but longer ( 5+ years )duration.
