RADIESSE
The Premier Destination for Radiesse
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is a dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a gel. When injected, it adds volume to the treated area while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. This combination leads to a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
What Concerns Can Radiesse Address?
Radiesse is versatile and effective in treating a variety of concerns, including filling in deep facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines. It can also be used to enhance cheekbones and restore volume to areas affected by age-related volume loss.
Benefits of Radiesse
Radiesse offers a unique combination of immediate volume and long-term collagen stimulation, making it one of the most advanced fillers available. Patients choose Radiesse for its:
Dual-Action Results
Radiesse provides immediate volume restoration to areas affected by aging or hollowing. At the same time, it stimulates your body’s natural collagen production for continued improvement over time.
Natural-Looking Outcomes
The formula integrates smoothly into the skin, enhancing your appearance without creating an overfilled or artificial look. It’s designed to subtly restore structure and definition for a refreshed yet natural effect.
Versatility
Radiesse is FDA-approved for both facial and hand rejuvenation, making it suitable for multiple areas of the body. From smile lines and sunken cheeks to thinning hands, it offers a targeted solution to various aesthetic concerns.
Minimal Downtime
Treatment sessions are quick and require little to no recovery time, so most patients can resume daily activities right away. Temporary side effects like swelling or redness are generally mild and short-lived.
Radiesse vs. Other Dermal Fillers
If you’re exploring dermal fillers to restore volume and reduce signs of aging, it’s important to understand how Radiesse differs from other popular injectable options. Each filler has unique properties, and selecting the right one depends on your specific aesthetic goals, treatment area, and desired longevity.
Radiesse vs. Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers like Juvederm and Restylane are commonly used to plump lips, smooth fine lines, and hydrate the skin. These fillers attract water and offer immediate, soft volume, but they typically last 6 to 12 months and dissolve more easily over time.
Radiesse, by contrast, uses calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres to provide longer-lasting structure and volume. It also stimulates collagen production for ongoing improvement, making it better suited for deeper folds, facial contouring, and areas that need more lift and definition.
Radiesse vs. Sculptra
Sculptra is another collagen stimulator, working gradually over a series of treatments to improve facial volume and skin quality. It’s often used for full-face rejuvenation and is praised for its subtle, natural progression of results.
Radiesse offers a more immediate outcome with fewer sessions, delivering both lift and contour right away while still encouraging collagen over time. It’s often chosen for patients who want both instant and long-term benefits in specific areas like the cheeks, jawline, or hands.
What to Expect During Your Radiesse Treatment
Your Radiesse experience at InVogue Rejuvenation begins with a one-on-one consultation, where our experienced providers assess your facial structure, skin quality, and aesthetic goals. We’ll develop a customized treatment plan to determine where and how much Radiesse should be applied to achieve balanced, natural-looking results.
The injection process typically takes 30 to 45 minutes and is performed in-office using fine needles or cannulas. Most formulations of Radiesse include lidocaine to minimize discomfort, and a topical numbing cream can also be applied. After the treatment, you may notice mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites—these effects are temporary and generally resolve within a few days.
Results are visible immediately, with continued improvement over time as Radiesse stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. You’ll leave the office with refreshed volume and definition, and minimal interruption to your daily routine. Most patients return to work or regular activities the same day.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Radiesse?
Radiesse is an excellent choice for adults experiencing volume loss, deep facial folds, or hollow areas caused by aging or weight changes. It’s ideal for those seeking natural-looking, longer-lasting results without undergoing surgery.
Candidates should be in generally good health, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have realistic expectations about what dermal fillers can achieve. If you want to improve facial structure, restore youthful contours, or rejuvenate aging hands, Radiesse may be the right solution for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Radiesse is an FDA-approved dermal filler with a proven safety record. The main component, calcium hydroxylapatite, is biocompatible and has been used in various medical applications for decades.
Results may vary slightly among individuals, but typically, the effects of Radiesse can last anywhere from 12 to 18 months. The longevity of the results depends on factors such as the treated area, individual metabolism, and lifestyle.
Radiesse treatments are generally well-tolerated and cause only minimal discomfort. Most formulations now include lidocaine, a local anesthetic, which helps numb the area during injection. Additionally, we may apply a topical numbing cream beforehand to further minimize any potential pain. Patients typically describe the sensation as a light pinch or pressure rather than true pain.
You’ll see visible improvements immediately after your Radiesse injections, as the gel provides instant volume and structure. Over the following weeks, the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres begin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. This gradual collagen remodeling enhances skin quality, firmness, and elasticity, delivering even better results over time (often peaking around 6 to 12 weeks post-treatment).
Yes, Radiesse is often part of a comprehensive aesthetic plan and can be safely combined with treatments like Botox for dynamic wrinkles, microneedling for skin texture, or laser treatments for pigmentation. Combining therapies allows us to address multiple concerns in one customized plan, enhancing your overall results. During your consultation, we’ll determine the safest and most effective combination based on your goals and skin condition.
