Radiesse is a long-lasting dermal filler that restores any lost volume in the mid and lower face. Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite, a synthetic form of a mineral found in teeth and bones. It stimulates collagen production for longer-lasting results and will continue to stimulate collagen over time. Radiesse can give an instant lift to your cheeks and is also used to define the jawline and replace volume in the temples. Radiesse has also been FDA-approved to replace volume loss in the back of the hands.

How is Radiesse different from hyaluronic acid fillers?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. Patients often choose Radiesse when they’re looking for both immediate improvement and long-term skin rejuvenation. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be reversed with Hyaluronidase, while Radiesse cannot be reversed.
How long does Radiesse last?
Many patients enjoy results for 9-12 months, although longevity varies depending on the treatment area, your body’s response, and the treatment technique used.
Is Radiesse a good option for skin laxity?
Radiesse may be an excellent option for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who are looking to improve skin firmness and quality without surgery. During your consultation, Michelle will determine whether Radiesse, Ultherapy, or another treatment is the best fit for your goals.
Is there any downtime?
Most patients return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment. Mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur and generally resolves over the following several days.
