Radiesse®

What Is Radiesse®?

Radiesse® is a cutting-edge dermal filler designed to revitalize and rejuvenate your appearance. Crafted with calcium-based microspheres suspended in a gel, this FDA-approved filler not only diminishes wrinkles and facial lines but also stimulates collagen production for a natural, long-lasting effect.

By restoring lost volume and promoting skin elasticity, it offers a non-surgical solution to the signs of aging, resulting in a refreshed and lifted aesthetic. Commonly used to address nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and sagging skin, it provides a subtle and gradual enhancement, seamlessly blending with your natural features.

How Does Radiesse® Work?

Radiesse® employs calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) to immediately add volume and smooth wrinkles by creating a supportive scaffold upon injection. CaHA microspheres within its stimulate collagen production, attracting fibroblasts to deposit collagen around the particles over time. This dual-action mechanism results in sustained skin firmness and volume. While the gel carrier component is gradually metabolized, the CaHA microspheres persist in the skin, providing long-lasting structural support.

Results typically last 12-18 months due to collagen stimulation. Its non-invasive approach combines immediate volumizing effects with collagen induction for natural-looking and enduring improvements in facial appearance.
