Radiesse is an injectable dermal filler that reduces wrinkles, creases, and scars by augmenting the body’s natural collagen supply. Composed of microspheres in a biocompatible gel, Radiesse is made from the same minerals found in our bones, so it carries little risk of allergic reaction.
Radiesse does not contain human or animal products, therefore injections of Radiesse can be performed during your initial visit without pre-treatment skin testing. Radiesse can be used on many areas of the face, including the lips, nasolabial folds, peri-oral lines, and depressed scars.
Treatments typically take 30 minutes and require only local anesthetic. Side effects such as swelling or bruising are minimal and should fade within a few days. Results are visible immediately after the injection and can last for months or years, although the procedure can be repeated as often as you wish.
Radiesse is moldable and therefore used as a means of shaping, contouring, and sculpting the face. Our clients have been highly satisfied with the results of Radiesse treatments. We incorporate dermal fillers into many of our personalized treatment plans.
