Is 1.5 cc of Radiesse enough to even out my cheeks and give them fullness? (photos)

Question

I was in an accident and broke my left cheek bone so there was an obvious difference between the two sides. About a year ago I got sculptra done along with a little juvederm to kind of even them out and the look was ok for a while but I feel like the juvederm did most of the work so I've had about two more syringes put in since then and it's gone already. Is 1.5 cc of radiesse split between both cheeks a good option with a little juvederm to make them fuller and more lifted?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I suggest seeing a facial contouring specialist who uses cannulas for injection to limit complications and help sculpt the area.  Bellafill would give you long term permanent change, Radiesse would give improvement but up to 12-15 months.  Best, Dr. Emer.

A combination of Radiesse and Sculptra can add stimulatory support for the soft tissue and further refine and improve your volume loss. Best, Dr Karamanoukian

I recommend that you get a combination of Sculptra and Radiesse to even out the contour of your face. Seek the expertise of a facial plastic surgeon.

Based upon the attached photos, 1.5 cc's of Radiesse would be a reasonable start although I personally prefer Perlane, for cheek augmentation, as it has far less lumpiness and redness than Radiesse.  Hope this helps.
