Does threading Radiesse work better than deep injections?

September 28, 2014
Asked By:jb2007 in Seattle, WA

I like Radiesse for my cheeks. One doctor used a threading technique on me 3 months ago and I saw dramatic results with just one 1.5 cc syringe. Recently I had another 1.5cc syringe put in my cheeks using a deep injection method and the results are minimal. What is the better of the two techniques? Which will give me better results without having to use a ton of filler? I feel like I'd have to use at least twice as much with the deep injections?
