Nasal swelling & redness following radiesse? (Photo)

Could be a vascular lesion, so you better see your doctor to get a prompt diagnosis and treatment! The nose is a very delicate area and vascular compromise is not so uncommon. If treated early it usually recovers well, but you need a rapid diagnosys

You should contact your plastic surgeon and be seen.  It may be near an injection site (was the Radiesse injected right under the nostril?) or something else that only the injecting surgeon would know.  It could also be some backup/vascular occlusion from the injection itself or other things (all of which are rare).  But I would advise you to be seen in person,I hope that this helps and good luck,Dr. E

Any filler injection may cause some swelling, redness or bruising. There may be mild tenderness at the site for a few days, but it should not increase in intensity. If swelling or redness increase, you should return to your doctor for reevaluation. Rarely, infections develop after filler injections and antibiotics may be needed to treat the problem. These infections usually resolve quickly with appropriate antibiotic therapy. Redness and swelling may develop without an infection. The problem usually resolves within a few days.
