Reduce the signs of aging in your face and hands with Radiesse!
As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and volume, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. While there are many cosmetic treatments available to address these concerns, Radiesse has emerged as a popular choice for both the face and hands.
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is a dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. CaHA is a substance found naturally in our bones, making Radiesse a safe and biocompatible option for cosmetic treatments.
When injected into the skin, Radiesse adds volume and stimulates collagen production, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. It is FDA-approved for use on the face and hands, making it a versatile option for addressing signs of aging in these areas.
How Does Radiesse Work?
Radiesse works in two ways: immediate volume restoration and long-term collagen stimulation.
Upon injection, the gel immediately adds volume to the treated area, filling in wrinkles and fine lines. This provides instant results that can last up to 18 months.
At the same time, the CaHA microspheres stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives our skin its structure and elasticity. As we age, our collagen production decreases, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles. By stimulating collagen production, Radiesse helps to improve skin texture and firmness, resulting in long-term rejuvenation.
What Can Radiesse Treat?
Radiesse is primarily used to address signs of aging in the face and hands. It can effectively treat:
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines (lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin)
- Chin wrinkles
- Pre-jowl folds (sagging skin along the jawline)
- Volume loss in the cheeks
- Aging hands (wrinkles and volume loss)
What to Expect During a Radiesse Treatment
Before your Radiesse treatment, you will have a personalized consultation with our trained and experienced provider to discuss your concerns and desired results. PA Ellie will assess your skin and determine the appropriate amount of Radiesse needed for your treatment.
On the day of your treatment, the provider will clean the treatment area and may apply a topical anesthetic to minimize any discomfort. She will then use a fine needle to inject the Radiesse gel into the targeted areas.
The entire treatment typically takes less than an hour, and you can resume your daily activities immediately after. Some mild swelling, bruising, and redness may occur, but these side effects usually subside within a few days.
How Much Does Radiesse Treatment Cost?
The cost of Radiesse treatment varies depending on the amount of product needed and the provider’s fees. However, the total cost will depend on the number of syringes needed for your treatment.
To ensure safe and effective results, it’s essential to choose a reputable and experienced provider for your Radiesse treatment. While it may be tempting to opt for a cheaper option, it’s crucial to prioritize the quality and safety of the treatment over cost.
