Can Radiesse be removed from my lips?

Hi the vibrator did cause some swelling but I took an anti- flammatory. It's been just over a year and it is still SLIGHTY visible. I thought the Lido adn saline shot worked performed by an RN after the shots she aggressively massaged the lump. I know at this point you just want it gone but it does last anywhere from 9 mos to 14 mos:( Good Luck!! LAH

9 Nov 2009Hi everyone. I had Radiesse injected into my forehead due to an indentation from a kenalog shot. For almost 7 weeks I had a lump the size of a jaw breaker and was mortified to be seen in public. I was only told to ice it and massage in the beggining and the bump remained. I found a website that recommended vibration to be used to help metabolize it. The doc suggested using a tooth brush but mine was not charged so get ready for this I used a vibrator...I know I should be embarrassed to even admit to using it on my forehead but it worked. My bump is almost completely flat!!!! I called my doc and Radiesse to ask them why they don't recommend this and they said vibration works for certain kinds of bumps. I was pissed that I walked around for 7 weeks when there was a simple solution right under my bed:) BTW the vib works wonders when you are congested (sinuses):) Anyway, ask your Doc if you are not to embarrassed. If you use the toothbrush be sure to have a barrier between your skin and the brush. Good Day!!

There is a way to reduce the amount of filler you have in your lips. It's natural and it works! I tired it myself and over night they went down and felt so much better. Mix a spoon full of baking yeast with a spoon and a half of Thicken yogurt or Libni. Libni is an Middle eastern thicker yogurt that is used a spread, libni works better. Mix the two together very good until it because a paste. Spread with cleans hands over your lips where you need it to reduce. leave it on for over 30 mins and wash it off. Do this before bed time. When you wake up you wind great relief and a reduction in the lips. This really works.... I tired and I am so happy with the results. This is an old middle Eastern remedy it removes unwanted unnatural material from the body... Good luck

I am a 46 year old male and had Radiesse injected into my deepening naso-labial folds. I think the doctor injected too much !! It doesn`t feel right. It feels like I have a bunch of wadded up cotton balls under my skin, smiling is even difficult. It`s only been two days, a little bit of the swelling has gone down but I don`t want to be seen like this, my mouth even has a strange shape now too. He also injected Juvederm under the eyes. I don`t like it either !!!My eyes feel and look like little slits. I feel like a freak !!!!I paid over $2,000 for this. It is NOT worth it. I think he poked my face with needles about 50 times, now I have "needle marks" that are black and blue. Jimmeny crickets, I thought it was supposed to make you feel good about yourself ??? opposite with me !!!! Not to mention the dcotor also thought I should get Botox all over my forehead but it hasn`t "matured" yet, so I can still crinkle, now someone told me that I won`t be able to make expressions now too !!!!This is a nightmare !!!I feel sick about paying so much money to feel like this. Don`t do it !!!!!!!

I'm sorry you're having such trouble with your procedure. My suggestion is to consult first with the dermatologist who performed it and have him correct the problem.
