I went for a consultation and nurse suggested Radiesse. She doesnt use canulas. My under eye area looks awful and it ages me terribly, I have skin that looks lose and it's wrinkled, on really bad days I get massive eye bags, one eye is much worse than the other. Also, can this be done by an experienced nurse injector, she showed me before and after photos if her work and they looked great, or should I stick to the doctor?

Answer: Beletero Balance And Restylane L Work Well For Under Eye Rejuvenation Radiesse is NOT recommended for use under the eyes. The risk of nodule formation is simply too great and there is no way to dissolve Radiesse (a calcium-based volumizing agent) should there be any problems or lumpiness analogous to the way hyaluronic acid-based fillers can be dissolved using the enzyme hyaluronidase. For the underye region, to treat bags, dark circles, and crinkles, I prefer Belotero Balance, which has not been associated with the bluish Tyndall Effect even when injected in the very thin skin under the eyes or diluted Restylane L. I recommend that you consult a board certified core core aesthetic physician with extensive experience in treating this region.

Answer: Radiessse v. Restylane for Tear Troughs Radiesse is absolutely not a good idea for the Tear Trough area. I always recommend Restylane for this area. Be sure to go to a skilled provider. Dr. Grant Stevens Marina Plastic Surgery Associates Marina del Rey, CA The Institute
