4 Vials of Radiesse Only Lasted 6 Months?

AB in CA
I had almost three vials put on the actual cheekbone( was told this should last 12-18 months and will not create the lasting collagen). Remainder to fill the cheek hollows. After 6 months it as completely worn off. If I have a high metabolism will this effect how long the Radiesse will last? I really liked the look but am very disappointed in how quick it wore off. Have discussed Sculptra but afraid of the same result.
