Within 13 days after the injections started having problems, there was a pain in the face, feeling of fullness in the cheeks, there were swelling at the injection site, swelling under glazamii rash. The situation is not constant, and the morning is better, worse in the evening. Doctor, my all my questions excuses, I went to the hospital for examination system put allergy, I do very allergenic. With the doctor decided that an allergy to a gel carrier, I endured three months of pain, swelling, bloating and swelling, then on everything it was 1.5 months, and I decided that the gel has resolved on this end, but at the end of June, it all started again. I am tormented, palpation felt seal in some places and under his left eye permanently all swells and swells, the doctor does not respond to my complaints. What should I do? I live in a small town, there are no experts at all. Help! It resolves to completely drug? How does it accelerate? I also feel constant pain around the eyes rchen strong, I discovered sinusitis, sinus swelling. help advice. I'm not writing in English, so I write with a translator, sorry for mistakes

Im truly sorry that your going through EXACTLY same symptoms as im for 18 months now . The only diffrence is the redness fluctuates but my other symptoms are constant and it could be because I have been taking for 18 months antibiotic , benadryl on daily bases natural remedies pain Meds anything to help me with redness and inflammation .
Nothing has helped me with burning or swelling and eye pressure pain and right side of the face always burns . The pain in the cheek unless I touch it hurts but that comes and goes and I can handle it but I can't handle the burning and at all . Don't rush to take pain medications or antibiotics unless they diagnose you what what's exactly is happening .
My doctor not only rejected everything but lied about everything and I live in big city Toronto and believe me the best claimed qualified doctors have rejected my plea to help me . It's not where you live but it's if you will be lucky enough to find honest good doctor who will do everything to help you .
I will priviate message you my email and we can communicate ,can you travel to Italy ???

Try taking Benadryl..and ice. I had the same exact situation. I did not have as much pain but I had permanent scarring due to injections in tear troughs, which is not the place Radiesse was meant to be put.

Also ask your doctor for perhaps an anti- inflammatory such as Feldene..that is the generic name. It is a drug that helps reduce swelling and inflammation, which causes pain.

Never do Radiesse under the eyes. The doctor should of known this. You should only use Restalyn under the eyes.

I see that no one answered you. How are you now? I am glad I read the reviews here and decided against doing this Radiesse thing. Will just do Botox instead.

I am so very sorry this has happened to you !!!!! I myself had a horrible experience with Radiesse as well . My pain lasted a very long time . And I still get pain . But it as not as bad as the first few months . Six to be exact . I am not sure what happened with me because the DR. who injected me would not admit it was from the Radiesse . But it CLEARLY WAS !!!!! The neurologist I saw said the product was pressing one my trigeminal nereve . This was on both sides of my face . Pain was so bad , pressure in my sinus area as well . Alot of women on here had complications with this product . Try to stay positive ...the Radiesse does eventually dissolve .

i'm so sorry to read your story. find a naturopath in your city; someone who works with plants, herbs, and foods. no matter how small your town, there will be someone like that. these types of practitioners understand the body much better than plastic surgeons and can suggest remedies that work, and have no side effects. also, be sure that you are consuming a lot of water every day.
you also might benefit from something called "lymphatic drainage" which removes toxins from the lymph.
