What would you recommend to correct Radiesse injections to the cheek area?

Using hyaluronidase has been reported, but is not terribly effective. When I see patients incorrectly injected with Radiesse, I try to infiltrate the area with saline and use the needle to "break apart" some of the filler and I massage quite a bit. I would NOT recommend Steroid injections as they can cause surrounding atrophy and actually make the irregularity worse. Steroids are reserved for when it is granuloma formation, not incorrectly placed filler. On that note: make sure you always see a BOARD CERTIFIED dermatologist or plastic surgeon who DOES A LOT OF THESE PROCEDUURES (some derms are just medical and some plastic surgeon just cut). Injecting a patient who is reclining is just wrong technique. Good news is, it will eventually get better.

Like you stated Radiesse has only a small amount of gel carrier in it. The rest of it is a calcium product which is similar to what's in bone. There is nothing that can take this part out but time. Saline and kenalog and all of that can help, but I really try to let people know how minimally they help. Sometimes in the long run, doing all of this can make it worse. Can you post pictures so we can see if there might be other, better options? Sometimes when people come to me with filler problems from fillers that aren't dissolvable like Radiesse and Sculptra, we can work with other things to help. Like adding softer HA fillers around the hard ridges. Or even sometimes Venus Freeze has helped resculpt areas for people while we are waiting for those fillers to go away. There are some temporary fixes that may be a better solution than trying to go the way of getting the Radiesse out. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
