About Radiesse:
Seeking a natural yet noticeable improvement in your appearance? Radiesse® might be the answer. This innovative dermal filler offers a unique two-step approach to facial rejuvenation, delivering immediate volume restoration and long-lasting collagen stimulation for results that can last up to 12-18 months.
Radiesse® works its magic through calcium hydroxyapatite microspheres suspended in a smooth gel. These tiny spheres provide immediate lift and volume, effectively filling in wrinkles and folds for a smoother, more youthful appearance. Common target areas include nasolabial folds (lines running from your nose to the corners of your mouth) and marionette lines (those that extend down from the corners of the mouth). But Radiesse® doesn't stop at simply filling lines. Its unique formula goes a step further by stimulating your body's natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that provides structure and support to your skin, and as we age, collagen production slows down, leading to wrinkles and loss of volume. By stimulating collagen, Radiesse® helps your skin maintain its youthful elasticity and firmness for long-lasting results.
This versatility makes Radiesse® a popular choice for addressing a wider range of concerns. Beyond wrinkles, it can be used to restore lost volume in cheeks and temples, enhance chin and jawline definition, smooth out lines around the mouth (smile lines), and even rejuvenate the hands. The treatment itself is typically performed in an outpatient setting and takes about 30 minutes, including a consultation with your practitioner. Topical anesthetic cream can be used to minimize discomfort during the procedure. With a proven safety record and FDA-approval, Radiesse® offers a safe and effective way to achieve a more youthful, natural-looking appearance. If you're considering facial rejuvenation treatments, arrange a consultation to see if Radiesse® is right for you.
