I had injections with Radiesse ca two months ago, into my nasolabial folds. Since yesterday, I have a small swelling and quite severe pain on my right nostril, which has turned a bit red in colour. Could it be necrosis or something else related to the injections? Shall I do anything about it?
Answer: Swelling in NLF 2 months after filler This is not necrosis which will be evident within a day or 2 or the injection. This might be an infection which needs to be evaluated by the person who injected you. This might require antibiotics.

Answer: Follow Up with Provider Thank you for your question. Necrosis would happen immediately or shortly after injection, it would not occur months later. I recommend contacting your treating physician for an examination to determine what might be causing the swelling and pain you are having. This is most likely not caused by the Radiesse. Best of Luck!
