Is there a potential for Radiesse to migrate after injection?

Fibrous septa provide a dense attachment between the dermis and the underlying subcutaneous fascia of the face.  Injection in the subcutaneous plane is unlikely to lead to migration of a stimulatory filler such as Radiesse.  Although migration is theoretically unlikely, it can occur in the rare occasion.

Radiesse is very unlikely to migrate from the area where it is injected.  It is a calcium hydroxyapatite substance that rarely migrates.  Because of the types of tissue planes in the face migration is unlikely.

Hi ladyl.  There is a difference between migration and movement.  Often after injection, we are able to move or manipulate Radiesse in a way that helps accentuate the desired facial contours.  But this does not involve moving the product from one area of the face to another.  It simply means we can reposition some of the product after injection.

Migration is altogether different and infers a movement of the product that was not caused directly by the methods described above.  We can think of no way that Radiesse would be able to move on it's own (migrate) from your cheeks to your nasolabial folds.  

Unlikely for Radiesse to migrate, however, intense manipulation can theoretically position Radiesse in another location.  Be sure to follow post injection protocols by your physician.

Lady I,
From my experience with Radiesse, it does not migrate. Additionally, I have not talked with anyone who has experienced migration either. Radiesse is malleable right when it is injected, but only to mold the shape, not to push in into different tissue planes or locations. I hope this is helpful.
