Hello, Ive had radiesse injected to the bridge and supratip of my nose 2.5 years ago, im not happy with the results especially because of the consistent swelling, it gets red and irritated very easily which also makes it hard for me to breathe. Unfortunately it hasn't dissolved on it's own yet. I wonder if there are any non surgical ways to remove radiesse from the nose or speed up the dissolving process on my own.

Answer: #Radiesse - Nonsurgical removal of Radiesse? Unfortunately, there is no way to "remove" Radiesse non-surgically. A combination of treatments may help (saline, laser, etc) but, unlike the HA injectables, there is no way to "reverse" it.However, it seems unusual that you're still having effects at 2.5 years. There tend to be more people wishing it lasted longer than the reverse.I would suggest consultations with several board-certified plastic surgeons and/or dermatologists in your area to let them take a look at you and, perhaps, offer some suggestions for treatment.I hope that this helps and good luck,Dr. Alan EnglerMember of #RealSelf100

Answer: Getting rid of Radiesse There have been some reports that injection of sterile water will held the resolution of Radiesse. There have also been some reports that hyaluronidase may help but this is questionable but an easy thing to try. Time helps and I would think 2.5 years would have been the end but sometimes not. Then there is always the surgical treatment. Incidently Radiesse has just been approved for skeletal hand treatment and the side effects here are uncommon. My Best, Dr Commons
