Will Radiesse harm a pregnancy?

July 24, 2015
Asked By:JDSampson in Temecula, CA

I know it's a contraindication to be injected while pregnant, but I found out I was pregnant the week after having two 1.5cc syringes injected into my cheeks. I'm an RN cosmetic injector, so I know it's not studied, and Im trying to convince myself that because it's base is calcium, it's fine, but of course now I'm worried. The physician I work under said not to worry, but I wanted some second opinions. I'm only 4-5 weeks along, so this stuff will likely be with me the course of the pregnancy!
