How long before the swelling from Radiesse goes down?

Question

Sheila Barbarino, MD, FACS · Answer

Depending on where your Radiesse was injected and if you are normally a person who bruises/swells, will dictate how long it will take for your swelling to go down after having your injections. Generally, swelling can go down in as little as one week and can linger up to three weeks. It will help the swelling to go down sooner to massage the area, eat fresh pineapple, take arnica Montana and/or bromelain.

I aways inform my patients after any filler injections that it takes up two weeks for any swelling to settle

Donn R. Chatham, MD · Answer

I believe Radiesse is one of our best fillers & we have successfully used it for years. It contains calcium, a natural element, and is well accepted by the body. It is best used as a "deeper" filler, placed under skin, not into skin. We use it for jawline support, cheek augmentation and other facial locations. On the other hand we do not use it in lips or near the eyelids.  There is always some temporary swelling which normally subsides in a couple of days.  Be sure you select an experienced physician to help determine whether Radiesse is appropriate for you needs.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I tell all my patients who have had filler injections that swelling can last up to two weeks.  I wish you the best of luck, Dr. Emer.

Kris M. Reddy, MD, FACS · Answer

Each patient will have different patient experience depending on the patient's specific situation and the skill/technique of the injector. The swelling will range from minimal to significant that can last a couple of weeks. Consult with your injector as he or she knows the scope of the treatment and the specifics about you.
