Can you get extreme facial pain from radiesse (dermal fillers) treatment?

Call your doctor: The most common side effects for treatment with Radiesse (dermal fillers) are swelling and/or bruising at the injection site, which typically pass in several days. As with any injection, risk of infection is also possible. Blood thinners or other such medications may increase the possibility of bleeding at the injection site, so disclose all medicines you are taking to your doctor prior to treatment. Call your doc.

Call Your Doctor: Radiesse (dermal fillers) is a dermal filler (hydroxyapatite and cellulose) that is much denser than juvederm or restilyn. The material could potentially be pressing on a nerve or irritating the neurovascular bundle, depending on the area of injection and normal variations in anatomy. I agree with dr ruden that you should call your doctor and they should see you within a few days.

Call doctor: It's hard to know exactly what the cause of the facial pain is but the dermal filler could be the issue. You should call the doctor to be evaluated and treated.

Unusual: Extreme pain after filler treatment would be very unusual if done properly. See the treating Doc. If not satisfied, get second opinion from board certified facial plastic surgeon.
