Radiesse

Say goodbye to signs of aging with Radiesse®


This innovative dermal filler is the first FDA-approved treatment for wrinkles and folds on both the face and hands. It not only fills lost volume but also enhances the skin’s natural collagen production.

What is Hyperdilute Radiesse?


Hyperdilute Radiesse is a thinned-out version of Radiesse, achieved by mixing it with saline and lidocaine. This modification boosts collagen stimulation in additional areas of the body.


How Do Radiesse and Hyperdilute Radiesse Combat Aging?


Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxyapatite particles suspended in a gel. While you’ll notice an immediate plumping effect, it works differently than typical hyaluronic acid fillers. Instead of just filling the area, the calcium hydroxyapatite stimulates your body’s collagen production, leading to a firmer, more youthful appearance that lasts longer than many other fillers.


Hyperdilute Radiesse can be injected into various areas beyond just the face and hands, offering broader treatment options.



Where Can Hyperdilute Radiesse Be Used?


Hyperdilute Radiesse has been effectively used in the following areas:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Buttocks
  • Hands
  • Upper arms
  • Décolletage
  • Abdomen
  • Knees


Who Should Consider Radiesse or Hyperdilute Radiesse?


These treatments are ideal for individuals aged 20 and older who are in good health and are concerned about volume loss and wrinkles. Most patients opting for these treatments are between 35 and 60 years old. During your consultation, we will provide detailed information about both options and answer any questions you may have.


What to Expect During and After Treatment


Radiesse and hyperdilute Radiesse are administered through a series of injections tailored to the size of the treatment area. We’ll determine the appropriate dosage during your consultation. After sterilizing and numbing the area for your comfort, we’ll strategically inject the filler to restore lost volume. Each session typically lasts just a few minutes.


While there’s usually no downtime, we recommend avoiding strenuous activities for a couple of days. You may experience some swelling, which typically subsides within 24-36 hours.


Are There Any Side Effects?


Along with mild swelling, common side effects observed in clinical trials include:


  • Redness
  • Tenderness
  • Pain at the injection site
  • Bruising
  • Itching
  • Nodules or bumps


These side effects are generally mild and temporary. We’ll cover all potential side effects in detail during your consultation.

What Results Can I Expect?


Radiesse provides an immediate plumping effect, with full results visible in about two weeks. For hyperdilute Radiesse, improvements in lines and wrinkles will start to appear around four weeks, with optimal results achieved in approximately four months. Results from both treatments can last from one to two years.
