Can Radiesse be used to fill in " smoker's lines" above my upper lip?

Radiesse is too thick your your lip lines. I would recommend a fine HA filler similar to juvederm or belotero. If it's too thick- it'll show... 

peels, lasers, and skin care are great ways to remove these lines as well. Lastly, if you smoke- quitting will help not replace the lines.

Hope this helps!

This area can be treated with lasers, fillers, microneedling.  Radiesse is not the best filler to this area as it can clump and form bumps.  HA fillers like Belotero and Restylane Silk and soon Juvederm Voleblla are best for this area.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.  There are so many dermal fillers on the market now, it can be difficult for patients to know what is best used and where.   Your plastic surgeon or injection specialist can help you determine which filler is best used in each specific area.  Radiesse is much too viscous of a product to use in fine lines above the lip.  We would typically recommend Belotero or Restylane Silk for this area.  You may also find some improvement with laser treatments or a microneedling procedure. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who offers several options for filler to discuss your concerns.  Best of luck.
