What Is Radiesse®?

This formulation provides immediate structural support following injection. The calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres then act as a scaffold, creating a supportive environment for your native fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. This process helps to improve the density and integrity of your skin’s dermal matrix over time.

This treatment is indicated for specific medical conditions, including-

  • Addressing moderate to severe volume deficits in the mid-face

  • Correcting mandibular contour irregularities

  • Managing structural volume loss in the chin and prejowl sulcus

  • Restoring soft tissue volume loss on the dorsum of the hands

What to Expect During Treatment

Consultation

We begin with a thorough medical consultation to assess your clinical needs, facial anatomy, and skin condition. Following this assessment, we will create a personalised treatment plan designed to address the underlying physiological issues.

During the Procedure

Radiesse® is injected precisely into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. We may use a topical numbing cream to increase your comfort. The product instantly restores volume, and you’ll see some improvement immediately after the procedure.

Aftercare and Recovery

Post-treatment, you may experience mild swelling or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days. We’ll provide tailored aftercare advice to ensure optimal healing and results. Most patients return to daily activities the same day.

Why Choose Radiesse®?

Unlike traditional fillers, Radiesse® offers more than a temporary fix. Its unique collagen-boosting ability makes it ideal for patients seeking structural rejuvenation with natural-looking, long-term improvement. It’s particularly well suited for contouring and lifting areas like the jawline, chin, and cheeks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Radiesse®

Radiesse® is a medical treatment used to correct moderate to severe facial volume loss and address structural changes in facial anatomy. It is clinically indicated for conditions such as deep nasolabial folds and for restoring soft tissue volume in areas like the cheeks and hands.

Radiesse typically provides visible results for 12 to 18 months. The duration can vary based on factors like age, skin condition, lifestyle, and how your body responds to collagen stimulation.

Radiesse® functions differently from other injectable treatments. It provides immediate correction for structural volume loss and also initiates a long-term biostimulatory response. This encourages your body to produce its own collagen, leading to a sustained improvement in the health and integrity of your skin.

Radiesse is FDA-approved and widely regarded as safe when administered by a qualified medical practitioner. It is designed for use in facial areas and has undergone extensive clinical testing to ensure safety and efficacy.

Some patients initially report a slightly firmer texture in the treated area, but this typically settles as the product integrates with your natural tissue and collagen develops.

Radiesse® may be used as part of a multi-modal treatment plan alongside other clinical therapies, such as neuro-modulator treatments or bioremodelling agents. Your clinician will advise on the most appropriate combination of therapies to address your specific medical needs.

This therapy is indicated based on a patient’s anatomical changes, rather than their age. It is a suitable treatment for addressing volume deficits and the loss of structural support in the skin, which can be identified at various stages of life during a medical consultation.

  • The duration of effect for Radiesse® often exceeds that of other injectable therapies. A follow-up treatment is generally scheduled every 12 to 18 months, based on your personalised treatment plan and your body’s specific response to the therapy.

Radiesse® is not indicated for use in the lips due to its formulation. For addressing volume loss or structural definition in the perioral area, treatments with different properties, such as those based on hyaluronic acid, are used.

This treatment is suitable for any patient with a clinical need, regardless of gender. In male patients, it is commonly indicated for addressing volume loss in the mid-face, providing structural support to the mandible, and correcting deep facial folds.
