Radiesse
Radiesse is an injectable filler (formerly known as Radiance) made of calcium-based microspheres. Most often used for wrinkle reduction by replacing lost volume.
When we are young our skin contains natural collagen. It’s this natural collagen that makes young skin strong, flexible and full of natural volume. As we age we lose that collagen and subsequently volume in our face. This loss makes us look older as the skin has no other choice but to wrinkle and sag without the natural strengtheners that we used to have.
What Can Radiesse Injections Do For You?
Radiesse can add back that lost volume by supplying your skin with the materials it needs to naturally produce collagen again. When your skin can naturally produce collagen, volume and elasticity come back and you begin to “look younger”! Many patients who use Radiesse experience long lasting results.
Some other Radiesse qualities:
- Immediate results. Once injected, wrinkle correction is immediate.
- Collagenesis. Radiesse promotes the production of new collagen.
- Long lasting. Radiesse lasts up to 12 months in some patients.
- Less discomfort. Radiesse now comes mixed with a numbing agent to make getting Radiesse injections less painful.
How Long Does Radiesse Last?
Radiesse has the ability to produce long lasting results. Some patients see results as long as 12 months after treatment.
