Radiesse: Immediate Lift and Collagen Boost

Radiesse is a biostimulatory dermal filler that provides immediate volume restoration. The unique properties of this filler are that it can be used for both volumizing the face and biostimulation of the production of new collagen and elastin in the skin. Biostimulation improves skin quality and firmness of the face and body. Unlike traditional fillers, which rely solely on the gel to provide volume, Radiesse works by encouraging the body to produce more collagen, leading to firmer, smoother skin over time. It’s an excellent option for those looking to address moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, as well as volume loss in the hands.

What Is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a dermal filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. It is FDA-approved for the treatment of moderate to severe facial wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds, and for restoring volume in the hands. The CaHA microspheres provide immediate volume upon injection, while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. As the gel is absorbed over time, the newly produced collagen continues to provide structure and volume to the treated area, resulting in long-lasting effects. Radiesse is unique in its ability to provide both immediate and long-term results, with most patients enjoying the benefits for up to a year or more.

How Does Radiesse Work?

Radiesse works in two stages. First, the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres provide immediate volume to the treated area, smoothing out wrinkles and adding fullness to areas such as the cheeks, nasolabial folds, or hands. Over time, these microspheres stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, which helps to rebuild the skin’s structural support and improve its overall texture and firmness. The treatment typically takes about 30 minutes, and results are visible immediately, with continued improvement over the following months as collagen production increases. Radiesse is particularly effective for patients with more advanced signs of aging, as it offers both immediate and long-term rejuvenation.
