Radiesse
Radiesse is an injectable filler that is used to add volume to the skin, in order to smooth out wrinkles and folds.* It is a calcium-based filler that uses hydroxyapatite, the type of calcium that we have in our bones. It is very well tolerated by the body and is excellent for smile lines around the mouth and the “pre-jowl” areas of the outer chin.* This treatment can also help with acne scars and hand rejuvenation.*
How does Radiesse work?
Radiesse is injected through a small needle and placed under the skin. Immediately, this filler works to add volume under the skin and over time, the benefits continue by stimulating your body’s own natural collagen.* The natural results have been shown to last a year or more in many patients, making the treatment results both immediate and long-lasting.* Over time, the gel is absorbed and the body metabolizes the CaHA microspheres leaving behind only your own natural collagen.* Since the deeper tissues of the skin are targeted, there won’t be any damage to the skin of the treated area.*

What kind of results can I expect?
This filler is an extremely safe and predictable, with results lasting longer than other temporary fillers.* Most of the other hyaluronic acid products last a few months, while Radiesse usually lasts much longer.* It is FDA approved to mix with lidocaine, an anesthetic, to significantly reduce injection-related pain. Patients with more stubborn smile lines and acne scars will especially benefit from Radiesse treatments.* It is more of a “stout” filler and provides a strong lift in women and men with deeper lines.
