Imagine young-looking, wrinkle-free skin. For patients with well-defined wrinkles or creases, such as the fold between their nose and mouth, injectable fillers are a simple, effective solution. Radiesse® is a safe, long-lasting, natural solution. Radiesse, formerly known as Radiance, is the first calcium hydroxylapatite injectable cohesive implant used for soft tissue augmentation. Over the years, Radiesse has proven to be a safe and effective alternative for those patients wishing to avoid the potential side effects of bovine and solid implant materials.
How It Works
As we age most of us lose over 40 % of bone in our face. Bone loss is a naturally-occurring part of the aging process. This along with sagging skin, loosening of ligaments, loss of fat, elastin and collagen represents major challenges in the aging of the face: hallowing of the cheeks, wrinkles. Surgical facelifts do not really address the effects of loss of volume in this area. A "nip and tuck" only trims loose excess skin without restoring volume which is what restores curves and contour of facial lines.
Radiesse consists of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a biocompatible carboxymethyl cellulose gel. Initially, it acts as a dermal filler, adding volume beneath the skin. After about 3 months, the microspheres in Radiesse act as a framework for new collagen as its production increases. It is long lasting and does not require a skin test because it is made from the same mineral component found in our bones and teeth.
By supplementing your skin's own depleted collagen, Radiesse is a safe, effective, time-tested, non-surgical wrinkle treatment that provides immediate results.
