I don't like the result after radiesse to my chin. What can be done? I don't want my chin to be anymore prominent (Photo)

Question

I have always joked about how I have a chin on one side of my face but not the other. I recently requested a filler to even out my chin. It was not overly weak before and I have a feminine face, just one side stronger than the other. The surgeon suggest radiesse (not telling me it was irreversible). I have a result where the larger side is even larger, neither edges blend into my jaw, it appears square and masculine, a longer face on one side than the other. What can I do? (Pls no more radiesse)

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Radiesse can be used on the chin to give more projection or to help even out any difference between the sides.  At this point, your option is to either just wait until the Radiesse goes away by itself or to have a filler used on the smaller side to adjust the appearance.  I would say it could take up to a year or so for the Radiesse to dissolve.

Garry K. Kim, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. Radiesse does not have a solvent like the other hyaluronic acid fillers. Unfortunately, time and sometimes massaging may help dissipate the filler. Usually, within 5 months the filler gradually disappears.

Kiran Polavarapu, MD · Answer

Unfortunately, radiesse cannot be dissolved like other filler products such as hyaluronic acids. Options include allowing time for the product to dissolve or visiting an injector to add more filler to correct any asymmetries.

Thank you for your Q.It will take approximately 12-14 months for the product to dissolute or get metabolized. Topical heat and massage can accelerate this timetable.Dr Karamanoukian
