Greetings Doctor/s I had radiesse x5 days ago. I do not like it at all. If I massage the cheek that is larger (right) will it help compress it? I am in a desperate search and reaching out to PS attempting to secure a doctor that has treated patients successfully in getting rid of and/or dissolving some of the filler. I appreciate your time and expertise greatly.

Answer: Radiesse Uneven, Unhappy Filler Side Effects / Radiesse to Cheeks With Asymmetry I suggest seeing an expert. If its been more than 2-3 weeks then you should consider radiofrequency treatments, hyperbaric oxygen, or 5fu/steroid injections. Saline injections can sometimes help. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Radiesse in cheeks Thanks for your question. It is certainly possible that you have been "over filled". However, be aware that Radiesse does induce more inflammatory reaction than the hyaluronic acid fillers (Restylane and Juvederm products), SO it is quite likely that you still have some tissue swelling there. I would wait a couple of weeks to see where things settle. Radiesse can be broken down somewhat by injecting sterile water into the region. You should of course see an expert about this.
