My Radiesse experience - fillers do not agree with me

Swelling went down significantly and bruise is almost gone went to see The Dr Monday and she said it looked good and that swelling should be gone in another week. That it can take about 14 days for it to be completely gone. Honestly I don’t like it at all I don’t think I will ever get it done again didn’t get the lift I wanted so it’s safe to say I will never get it done again. Got my Botox injections and got two bruises on my forehead don’t know why because I’ve had Botox injected 3 times before and never bruised, will go back to the dr in 4 months though!!! Just not for Radiesse!!

Here I am 51 hrs later swelling and bruise has gone down substantially (Thank God) but the lump and tenderness is still there!! One this is for sure I will never get this done again!!! Going to see Dr. Falguni first thing tomorrow 3/23 for her to check on it, I just keep praying that this lump goes away! If it was possible to dissolve this I would do it but I know there isn’t so time is the only thing that I’m praying does. Going for Botox next week with Dr. Falguni something I’m def excited about because that’s one thing that I always enjoyed getting with good results.

I went and got my Radiesse injected yesterday 3/19 and I must admit it was a huge mistake on my part. All I wanted was a little lift on my cheeks because I felt like I needed just a little. I was never a cheeky person nor did I want to be because I don’t like that look on myself, I made sure I explained that to the Dr that all I wanted was a little. So she decided I needed one full syringe on each side after injecting just half on my right cheek first, it looked ok after the first right cheek injection, now when she did my left side I felt a little pain come to find out she said she thinks she hit a small vein or artery because it was bleeding allot and it swelled up so fast, I started to cry because I was like wow what did I just do to my face? She assured me it was ok that it has happened before And that the swelling would go down by Thursday (praying it does) before she left the room she said she wanted me to go back on Friday morning so she can check on it, I will definitely be going... Ok so now I left the office and my face was super swollen on both sides ???? I had to be back at work so I was a little embarrassed. I had my hair up in a pony tail so I couldn’t hide the bruise or swelling????. I leave work around 4:30 and go straight to cvs and buy Arnica for bruising and swelling. I go home look in the mirror and just broke down crying regretting my decision although I still have faith in what Dr. Falguni told me. I couldn’t sleep at all my cheeks felt tight and hurt allot. Iced it awhile and put Arnica like advised. When I woke up for work Wednesday today 3/20 I saw swelling was a little bit less thank God!! Bruising was worse but I know it has to look worse before it gets better!!! I don’t blame the Dr because I believe even the best skilled Dr. can make a mistake no such thing as perfect in my book. But I do blame myself for even getting it done in the first place after my first filler gone wrong with juvederm and Voluma XC. I guess my face just rejects these fillers doesn’t want it in there. ???????????One thing I will say is that I WILL NEVER EVER GET FILLERS ON MY FACE AGAIN!!! Fillers are not for everyone and this is definitely my last lesson learned no more!!! Botox yes because thank god I’ve never had an issue with it. It helped with my migraines and it stopped my hair from falling out yes it did!!! There is no need to bash the Dr. or talk bad about her because she is nice, compassionate and I’m sure good at was she does, and she wasn’t in a rush to get me out of the office after the procedure. I will sill go to her again just not for fillers on my face... Fillers do not agree with me???????????you will see pics of right after procedure and 24hrs after I will post more as the days and weeks go by.
