Warnings:  

Intravascular injection may lead to embolization, occlusion of the vessels, ischemia, or infarction. Take extra care when injecting soft tissue fillers, for example, injecting the product slowly with minimal pressure. Rare but serious adverse events associated with the intravascular injection of soft tissue fillers in the face included temporary or permanent vision impairment and blindness, cerebral ischemia or cerebral hemorrhage, leading to stroke and skin necrosis. Damage to underlying facial structures. Immediately stop the injection if the patient experiences changes in vision, signs of a stroke, blanching of the skin, and unusual pain.   

The treating physician should be knowledgeable regarding any pretreatment evaluation and appropriate interventions in the event of intravascular disseminated injection. Prompt intervention by an appropriate medical specialist should be given to these signs or symptoms of intravascular injection occur. Use of these products in any person with active skin inflammation or infection in or near the treatment should be deferred until the inflammatory or infectious process is controlled.  

The CaHA particles in RADIESSE^® are radiopaque and clearly visible on CT scans and may be visible on standard X‑rays. Patients should be advised to inform their healthcare providers and radiologists. Some injectable implants have been associated with tissue hardening at the injection site, particle migration, and allergic or autoimmune reactions. 

Do not overcorrect (overfill) a contour deficiency with these products.  

Injections of RADIESSE^® Injectable Implant diluted 1:2 with 0.9% sterile saline should not be made in an area overlying or including breast tissue. 

Injection into the dorsum of the hand may cause adverse events that last for more than 14 days and may result in temporary difficulty performing activities (48% of study patients reported this adverse event). RADIESSE^® may cause nodules, bumps or lumps in the dorsum of the hand (12% reported this event) and can last up to 1 year. The safety and effectiveness for use in the lips has not been established. There have been published reports of nodules associated with the use of these products injected into the lips.   

Precautions:  

In order to minimize the risk of potential complications, this product should only be used by trained and experienced healthcare practitioners who are knowledgeable about the anatomy at and around the injection site. Healthcare practitioners should fully review all product educational materials and the entire package insert. For use in the correction of wrinkles in the décolleté, completion of an indication-specific training program is required for all users.

• Use in the dorsum of the hand may result in significant swelling of the dorsum of the hand. 
• Special caution should be exercised when treating areas in close proximity to breast implants. 
• To help avoid needle breakage, do not attempt to straighten a bent needle or cannula. Discard it and complete the procedure with a replacement needle. 
• Patients who are using medications that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin or warfarin, may experience increased bruising or bleeding at the injection site.  
• Patients with a history of previous herpetic eruption may experience reactivation of the herpes.
