As : As a rule, Radiesse (dermal fillers) is very safe. Complications of any procedure can happen but are rare with this filler. Bruising is not uncommon with any injection. Nodule formation has been reported.

Usually not: When properly placed, " radiesse" is a natural product (calcium in a gel) that lifts and fills the cheeks, smoothes out the folds around the mouth and improves the jawline. The risks are small and include lumpiness, swelling and bruising. So check out the person injecting your face, as you only get one.

Radiesse (dermal fillers) : Radiesse might be the safest to inject due to its lack of reactions/side-effects. The biggest problem with Radiesse is that it is not a reversible procedure without surgery. I love the product and it is my #1 choice for naso-labial folds. It is a little more expensive that juvederm and restylane, (dermal fillers) but last twice as long. Make sure your dr is very experienced with radiesse. Ask for before & after photos. We all like to show off our work.

As : As long as the Radiesse (dermal fillers) injections are done by an experienced physician the product is not dangerous. I frequently use this product in the cheeks and nasolabial grooves.

Experienced doctor: The radiuses itself is a safe and effective product. It is a calcium based filler unlike the hyaluronic acid fillers. There is a low side effect profile but the person injecting you better understand facial anatomy and now what they are doing. Its not reversible. so a bad job will have to sit there until its gone which is over a year. The closing of an artery is the worst event.
