Elliot M. Heller, MD · Answer

It is best to do a chin implant after you get radiesse. You also need to let your surgeon know where you had your radiesse put so that it does not interfere with the implant.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Chin implants can be placed after injection of Radiesse. Make sure to tell the surgeon how much and what locations the Radiesse was injected to prevent undercorrection with the chin implant. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

While it is perfectly safe to have a chin implant after Radiesse, the presence of the Radiesse may make it more difficult to determine what style and size of implant to use.  If your surgeon evaluated you before the Radiesse was placed, this should not be an issue.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

The simple answer is that if you have fillers in the chin it doesn't stop you from being able to have an implant or chin surgery.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Purvisha Patel, MD · Answer

It is perfectly fine to get a chin implant after filler. Radiesse is a longer acting filler, and when in the chin can give you a good idea of how your implant will look.
