Non-Surgical Options for Restoring Your Youthful Face: Radiesse*
Aging gracefully is something not every person is lucky enough to enjoy. Some of us transform from young and beautiful to old and sagging once we grow out of our twenties. Each year brings new wrinkles that make us look much older than our actual age.
You don’t have to be stuck with the bad hand you’ve been dealt, nor do you have to take drastic measures such as plastic surgery to restore your looks. There is a middle ground between doing nothing and going under the knife: convenient injectable treatments such as Radiesse.*
*Individual results may vary.
What Is Radiesse?
Radiesse is one of the best anti-aging treatments currently available. Radiesse is a dermal filler that smoothes out wrinkles and encourages the skin to start producing a higher amount of collagen again.*
*Individual results may vary.
Radiesse consists of calcium hydroxylapatite particles suspended in a gel made of carboxymethylcellulose. Calcium hydroxylapatite is a material that is found naturally in the body.
How Is Radiesse Used?
Radiesse is typically used to treat a variety of deep facial folds, including the vertical glabellar lines (frown lines) that form between the eyebrows. It can reduce nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, chin wrinkles, and more. It is also used to enhance sunken facial contours, including cheek and chin areas, and to fill depressions caused by scarring.*
*Individual results may vary.
The Benefits of Radiesse
Radiesse is a non-invasive and non-surgical cosmetic option that will fix deep lines and wrinkles. It will restore your looks to their previous youthful appearance. Radiesse treatments last longer than most non-invasive forms of cosmetic treatments.*
*Individual results may vary.
Radiesse’s calcium hydroxylapatite particles form an underlying framework in the skin tissues, which adds volume to the area. The new tissue that grows between these particles further augments volume.*
Collagen protein production in the skin slows down as you age. Radiesse treatments encourage collagen production. The increase in collagen will give your skin a younger and fuller appearance.*
Radiesse is made up of naturally occurring substances, which means there is a negligible chance of allergic reactions to this treatment.
*Individual results may vary.
The Radiesse Injection Procedure
During the Radiesse injection treatment, a topical anesthetic is first applied to the target areas to avoid discomfort. Next, an ultra-fine needle is used to inject Radiesse just beneath the skin.
Radiesse treatment is a short and simple process that takes approximately 20 minutes.*
*Individual results may vary.
The treatment itself can last for approximately a year, sometimes longer.* Over this time, the substance is safely and naturally absorbed into the system. It is helpful for patients to return for more treatments to maintain their youthful looks.
*Individual results may vary.
Potential Side Effects
Radiesse treatments do not have any major side effects.* After treatment, you might notice bruising or swelling around the targeted areas. These side effects do not last for more than a few days.* In rare cases, nodules form under the targeted areas. Inform your doctor of this problem immediately if you experience this side effect. Individuals who are taking blood thinners or other medication may experience a degree of bleeding at the injection site.
*Individual results may vary.
How Much Does Radiesse Cost?
Radiesse cost varies greatly depending on a variety of criteria. Price is dependent on factors like the number of injections required and the number of wrinkles being treated. Please contact our office for more information
