What Is Radiesse?
Radiesse is truly one of a kind when it comes to injectables. The formulation of this product consists of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based carrier gel. Unlike other fillers that are designed simply to fill in lines and wrinkles, Radiesse has a different method of action. It stimulates the body’s natural ability to restore skin elasticity and firmness, making it both a filler and a biostimulator.
Radiesse injections are administered beneath the skin using a small needle. Once injected it can offer immediate volume and wrinkle correction along with long-term improvements in the appearance and texture of the treated areas.
A Closer Look at the Benefits of Radiesse
Immediate Wrinkle Reduction
Like other fillers, Radiesse injections have the ability to instantly smooth out wrinkles and deep-set lines. As soon as the Radiesse filler is injected, the CaHA microspheres fill the skin’s hollow areas, effectively reducing the appearance of wrinkles and folds and bringing volume to areas that may have lost fat pads or elasticity.
Subtle Facial Contouring
As you age, the areas on each side of your chin can begin to lose volume and look more hollow. This can lead to pre-jowl folds along the jawline. Radiesse is approved for treating this area, which can improve your facial contours and make you look younger.
Long-Lasting Effectiveness Through Collagen Production
One of the most distinctive features of Radiesse is its ability to stimulate collagen production. As the CaHA microspheres gradually dissolve, your body can replace the scaffolding created by the product with its own collagen, resulting in longer-lasting improvement that comes from your body’s own ability to heal.
Non-Invasive, Low-Downtime Injections
For those who want to avoid surgical procedures and lengthy recovery periods, Radiesse injections are a good solution. The treatment is quick, often completed in under an hour, and requires minimal downtime. Most patients are able to return to their regular activities immediately afterward.
Natural-Looking Results
At our office, our goal is to enhance your natural beauty, not alter it. Radiesse helps us to achieve this by providing results that look natural and are harmonious with your facial features. Because it works with your body’s own collagen production capabilities, it can lead to enhancements that are both subtle and impactful.
FDA-Approved Wrinkle Improvement
Radiesse is the first and only CaHA filler of its kind that is FDA-approved for short-term and long-term improvement of wrinkles and loss of volume in the face. It is approved for several different areas such as the smile lines, the corners of the mouth, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and pre-jowl folds.
Frequently Asked Questions About Radiesse Treatments
How Long Does Radiesse Last?
One of the standout features of Radiesse is its lasting effectiveness. Thanks to its unique ability to stimulate collagen production, Radiesse treatments provide long-term results that outlast many other fillers. While individual results can vary based on factors like skin type, lifestyle, and treatment area, most patients enjoy the benefits of their Radiesse treatment for a year or more. Additionally, regular touch-up treatments can help maintain your youthful appearance even longer.
Is Radiesse Suitable for All Skin Types?
Yes, Radiesse treatments can be used for all different skin types and colors. However, as with any treatment, it is important to have a consultation to determine whether the injectable is suitable for your particular situation. It may not be right for you if you have active skin irritations or infections or if you are pregnant or nursing.
Are Radiesse Treatments Painful?
Radiesse injections involve a small needle, and most patients report only minor discomfort during the treatment. Radiesse (+) also includes lidocaine as part of the formulation, which may be right for certain patients. Because your comfort is important to us, we will continually monitor your comfort level throughout the treatment.
Can Radiesse Be Combined With Other Treatments?
In some cases, Radiesse can be effectively combined with other treatments for a “liquid facelift”. By using dermal fillers and neuromodulators, we can provide our patients with a non-surgical, anti-aging facelift that can make them look younger and more revitalized. You will need to have a consultation with us to discuss which treatments are right for you.
