A patient asked 5 years ago
I had Radiesse injected over 6 months ago and am not happy with the results. I have had sodium thiosulfate injected to even the sides out and get rid of some of the Radiesse but I just want my old face back. Can Ultherapy really heat up/shorten the life span of Radiesse? If so, are there any risks?

Ultherapy for Radiesse Removal

  Hi and thank you for your question! While we are generally mindful to avoid the areas injected with fillers especially during the first few weeks and especially for hyaluronic acid fillers, I doubt Ultherapy can offer any help with reducing Radiesse, and unfortunately, I cannot recommend this approach. I hope it helps and good luck!
