Can Radiesse cause an autoimmune reaction in an area other than where it was injected?

Asked By:ashleye44 in Louisiana, LA

I had Radiesse injected in the leg and now have acne type bumps all over my face. It is possible that I have an auto immune disease. Could an immune reaction to Radiesse affect my face even though the product was placed in the leg? If so, is there a treatment that could help?
