I had radiesse done 15 months ago. 1,5 ml on each side of my jaw and in the dimple area. But I think my jaw is not as defined as before radiesse. the transition between cheekbones and jawline is less visible as before. Even my dimple is not as visible as before. And it looks more masculine and fatter/puffy. Now i know radiesse will go away between 12/18 months. But I am affraid the collagene have changed my jaw area forever. Is this possible? will i get this thight jaw back with dimple?
