What is
Radiesse?
Radiesse is a safe, next generation dermal filler that is aiming
to become the new standard for the correction of facial lines and
wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds. Years of rigorous clinical
studies prove that Radiesse provides long lasting correction of
smile lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. Radiesse is made
of unique calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel
that is injected into the skin through a simple, safe, and minimally
invasive procedure. Radiesse treatments deliver a natural look that
lasts.
How does
Radiesse work?
Radiesse is gently injected into the skin in small amounts with
a very fine needle. Radiesse stimulates the body to produce new
collagen. This unique response provides immediate, visible
improvement of folds and wrinkles, and provides long-lasting and
beautiful results.
Is Radiesse
safe?
In years of rigorous clinical testing and use by physicians in
hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide, Radiesse has been shown
to be safe and effective. In the FDA clinical studies there were
virtually no allergic reactions. There may be some normal injection
related occurrences, such as bruising, discomfort, swelling, or
redness that typically resolve on their own.
Am I a Radiesse
candidate?
You may be a Radiesse dermal filler candidate if you are
beginning to notice facial wrinkles, lines, and folds. Radiesse
provides immediate and long-lasting wrinkle correction. Talk to a
Radiesse physician for more information.
Why "correct"
wrinkles with Radiesse?
Over time, tissue volume diminishes, leaving folds and wrinkles
in several common patterns, including the deepening of nasolabial
folds, accentuated smile lines (sometimes called "marionette
lines"). Radiesse can be injected into the skin in order to
compensate for the loss of volume or to correct these areas. By
stimulating the body to produce new collagen, Radiesse provides a
natural look that lasts for a fresh, rested, healthy appearance that
still looks like you.
How is a
Radiesse treatment performed?
Radiesse is injected into the skin through a simple, safe,
quick, and minimally invasive outpatient procedure. Typically
administered in a physician's office with the use of a local
anesthetic, Radiesse treatment requires little to no downtime, with
most patients returning to normal activities almost immediately
after treatment.
Where can I get
a Radiesse treatment?
Thousands of physicians nationwide have been trained to provide
Radiesse treatments. Find a qualified Radiesse physician near you
with whom you can schedule a consultation to discuss Radiesse and
your treatment options. Contact a Radiesse physician today to find
out whether you are a candidate for our next generation dermal
filler.
How soon can I
expect results? How long will the results last?
The results are immediate. Radiesse continues to deliver results
as it stimulates your body to produce new collagen. Results may last
a year or more in many patients, which may result in fewer office
visits for retreatments. Since results may vary, be sure to discuss
your expectations with your doctor.
How many
treatments will I need?
Many patients will achieve their desired result after just one
or two treatments. To ensure your satisfaction with the treatment,
your physician might schedule a follow-up visit, where a touch up
treatment might be recommended.
How much does
Radiesse cost?
Because Radiesse treatment is customized for each patient, its
cost varies. In general, the cost of Radiesse is comparable to
similar procedures. And because Radiesse may require fewer offices
visits for retreatment, you could save money and time. Consult your
physician for a recommendation as to how Radiesse can best meet your
individual needs.
Are there any
side effects?
Normal, injection-related reactions such as mild irritation,
edema, swelling, itching, discoloration, or tenderness at the
injection site may occur. These conditions typically resolve
themselves within one to two days.
Could I have an
allergic reaction to Radiesse?
Radiesse is biocompatible. You do not need to undergo skin
allergy testing, which is common with certain animal-based or
permanent filler agents, prior to treatment. However, if you believe
you are having an allergic reaction to Radiesse, seek medical
attention immediately.
Is Radiesse
permanent?
No. Treatment results are long-lasting, but not permanent. Over
time the tiny calcium-based microspheres gradually break down into
calcium and phosphate ions which are safely and naturally absorbed
into your body, leaving your own newly produced collagen in their
place.
