Radiesse

Radiesse is a dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres that provides immediate volume and stimulates collagen production. It helps smooth wrinkles, restore facial contours, and create a natural, long-lasting youthful appearance.

What Are Radiesse?

Radiesse is an FDA-approved dermal filler used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. It is made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel. Once injected, Radiesse provides immediate volume while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, helping improve skin firmness and structure over time. It is commonly used to treat areas such as the cheeks, jawline, smile lines, and hands, with results that can last up to 12–18 months.

Dermal Fillers Vs Facial Fat Grafting

Facial fat grafting is a technique that involves taking fat from one area of the body and injecting it into another area to add volume. This method can also be used to address signs of aging, such as wrinkles or hollows. On the other hand, dermal fillers are gels that are injected directly beneath the skin in order to provide volume and a “plump” look to areas of the face.

Who Is an Ideal Radiesse Candidate?

An ideal candidate for Radiesse is someone looking to restore facial volume, smooth moderate to severe wrinkles, and enhance facial contours without surgery. Suitable candidates typically:

  • Are in good overall health

  • Have visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, folds, or volume loss in areas like the cheeks, jawline, or hands

  • Desire immediate results with long-lasting effects

  • Want natural-looking facial enhancement

  • Are seeking a treatment that also stimulates collagen production for continued improvement over time

A consultation with a qualified practitioner is recommended to determine if Radiesse is the right option based on your facial structure and aesthetic goals.

 
 

How Do I Prepare for a Radiesse Treatment?

Proper preparation can help ensure a safe and effective Radiesse treatment. Here are key steps:

  1. Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from taking aspirin, ibuprofen, or certain supplements like fish oil or vitamin E for 24–48 hours before your appointment, as they may increase bruising or swelling. Consult your doctor before stopping any prescribed medications.

  2. Skip Alcohol: Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to treatment to reduce the risk of bruising and swelling.

  3. Clean Skin: Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or skincare products.

  4. Inform Your Practitioner: Share your medical history, allergies, and any medications you are taking. Mention any previous cosmetic treatments in the area to be treated.

  5. Plan Your Schedule: Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness may occur after treatment, so schedule your appointment when you have flexibility in your routine.

Following these steps can help ensure a smooth procedure and optimal results from your Radiesse treatment.

What Takes Place During a Radiesse Treatment?

A Radiesse treatment is a minimally invasive procedure designed to restore facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance contours. Here’s what typically happens during the session:

  1. Consultation:
    The practitioner evaluates your facial anatomy, discusses your goals, and determines the optimal injection sites and amount of Radiesse needed.

  2. Preparation:
    The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream or local anesthetic may be applied to ensure comfort.

  3. Injection Process:
    Radiesse is injected into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The filler provides immediate volume while stimulating collagen production over time.

  4. Post-Treatment Care:
    Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness may occur but typically resolves within a few days. Patients can usually resume normal activities immediately.

  5. Results:
    You will see instant improvement in volume and contour, with continued enhancement as collagen develops over the following weeks and months.

Radiesse offers long-lasting, natural-looking results with minimal downtime.
