Radiesse is a soft tissue filler comprised of calcium-based microspheres called calcium-hydroxylapatite which are suspended in a watery gel. Radiesse is a dermal filler ideal for restoring volume to a face, sculpting cheekbones or helping to provide facial symmetry and balance. The volume provided by Radiesse can also give a “lift” to tissues that have descended with time.
How Does Radiesse Work?
Like all soft tissue dermal fillers, Radiesse is delivered to the tissues beneath the skin and the microspheres act to stimulate your body to create new collagen effectively re-filling the lost volume of the face. Radiesse, like Artefill and Sculptra, encourages your body to restore volume with its own natural tissues. Radiesse should last from 9 to 18 months.
Who is a Good Radiesse Candidate?
Candidates for Radiesse are patients who have lost, or never had “high” cheekbones or those who have begun to notice that their face has begun to “hollow” with time. Radiesse also helps to correct facial asymmetries and restore facial balance by building more support on the weaker side.
Radiesse Procedure
Like all dermal fillers, Radiesse is injected into the soft tissues of the face after the application of topical anesthesia or with numbing of the areas to be injected. No massage or manipulation of the product is needed after the injection is complete. Our Radiesse patients can notice immediate results from the procedure as full results may take up to 2 weeks.
