Had restylane injected under my eyes for past couple of years no problems. Had juvaderm in the corners of my mouth & naso folds-didn't work. Wanted that hollow cheek so used radiesse to create some cheeks & lift the naso folds. Folds got WORSE,now have a really fat, wide, unrefined face. Can I lipo some of the malar fat? Face lift? Buccal pad removal? Also, I was looking to get rhinoplasty to refine my nose, but am worried since the radiesse has really messed with the proportions of my face
Answer: What can I do with the radiesse overfill? Its best you wait until your body has metabolized Radiesse naturally then having it surgically removed, you could make this issue worse doing so

Answer: Radiesse can be defused using scar modulators, enzymes, and kenalog Radiesse is a stimulatory filler that is an excellent option for patients who desire a longer-lasting filler alternative to hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. In our office, we use Radiesse to complement structural areas of the face and contour bony prominences. Our office also is a center of excellence for filler complication treatments and we see patients who have been treated by other doctors and have undesirable results from Radiesse or other long-lasting fillers. We have treatment options available for Radiesse filler nodules, granulomas, and soft tissue thickening. The first step would be to diagnose the nodularity and determine whether there is an option for surgical vs. non-surgical removal. Surgical excision is a possibility in some patients; whereas others with more diffuse fillers may benefit from intralesional therapy using scar modulators and enzymes and kenalog. Radiesse complications may be long-lasting and prompt action is key. Patients who have no access to an expert in the field should begin gentle massage of the areas of nodularity with Plato’s Scar Serum twice daily. RF and invasive lasers can actually do more damage by stimulating further collagen growth.

Answer: Radiesse Overfill Hi ES. You had a much more natural appearance 3 years ago. If you had lost volume after that, but before the Radiesse, it's possible that your injector did not have a keen eye for where the product needed to be placed to keep you looking natural. Injection procedures are as much art as they are science which is why prices vary from office to office. If you are looking for cheek volume alone, another good option is Sculptra, which may look more natural for you. The results can also last up to 2 years.

Answer: What to Do For Overfilled Face (with Radiesse)? Hi ES,It is not the Radiesse per se that has "messed the proportions" of your face, but rather the artistic vision of the injecting physician. The best course for you is to allow the Radiesse to dissipate over time, and then seek a physician injector with good artistic vision. I would not recommend the removal of any facial fat. Rhinoplasty can be performed, but again it is most important that you choose your rhinoplastic surgeon most carefully. Good luck and be well.Dr. P

Answer: Radiesse Way overfilled in many areas. Radiesse can not be dissolved, wait for time to dissolve it. Would not recommend liposuction of any fat from the face because when radiesse disappear, the face will look hollow.You did not need any filler to begin with. Fillers are way over usedSamir Shureih MD.FACSsshureih@msn.com
