If Radiesse is Dissolved, then the Problem is in Biopolymer Gel? Whether is Not That's Problem?

Roza2012
In 2006 I injected a biopolymer gel in the are of nasolabial folds and lips, and in 2011year I injected Radiesse 0.8 to the corner of the mouth and cheeks, in 5 days after that began burning and redness, the face started to swell, in nasolabial folds appeared red bands.There was curing in the injection site and this lasted 1 month,but all this symptoms occurred again 6 times in 18 months.Why this process is repeated 2-3 months?
