ABOUT RADIESSE
-
Radiesse is an FDA-approved dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel. It is designed to immediately restore volume and smooth out moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. In addition to its instant plumping effect, Radiesse also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, resulting in longer-lasting, natural-looking results. It’s commonly used for facial contouring, jawline definition, and hand rejuvenation.

During your consultation, our expert injector will address your skin concerns and discuss your aesthetic goals. They will recommend whether Radiesse is the best dermal filler for you based on your unique needs, ensuring a personalized treatment plan for optimal results.
-
Immediate Volume Restoration: When injected, the gel carrier instantly adds volume to lift and smooth the treated area—such as smile lines, cheeks, or hands.
Collagen Stimulation: Over time, the calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres stimulate your body to produce its own natural collagen. As your body absorbs the gel, the newly formed collagen continues to support and firm the skin for long-lasting results.
-
Radiesse results are long-lasting, typically 12 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Many patients notice immediate improvement after treatment, with continued enhancement as natural collagen builds over time. Some touch-up treatments may be recommended to maintain optimal results.
