What is RADIESSE®?

RADIESSE® is a safe, FDA-approved dermal filler that restores a natural, long lasting, youthful look. This convenient treatment can restore facial volume as well as correct smile lines, Nasolabial Folds and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. RADIESSE® is made of unique calcium-based microspheres suspended in a natural gel that is injected into the skin through a simple, safe and minimally invasive procedure.

How does RADIESSE® work?

RADIESSE® works with your body, below the skin’s surface. Tiny calcium-fased microspheres form a “scaffold” to support and stimulate the growth of your own collagen. Over time, the calcium-based microspheres gradually break down and are safely and naturally absorbed by your body. RADIESSE® does more than just temporarily fill-in facial folds and wrinkles — it can restore facial volume for the youthful look you want.

How soon can I expect results? How long will the results last?

The results are immediate. RADIESSE® may last a year or more in many patients. Since results may vary, be sure to discuss your expectations with your doctor.

Is RADIESSE® safe?

Yes. Hundreds of thousands of patients have experienced RADIESSE® and more than 4,000 physicians worldwide have been trained to provide RADIESSE® treatments. Through years of clinical studies and independent research, RADIESSE® has proven to be safe and effective. With RADIESSE®, you get FDA-approved, safe, clinically tested reliability.

How is a RADIESSE® treatment performed?

RADIESSE® is injected into the skin through a simple, safe, convenient procedure. Typically administered in a doctor’s office, with the use of a local anesthetic, RADIESSE® treatments have little to no downtime, with most patients returning to normal activities soon after treatment.

How many treatments will I need?

Many patients will achieve their desired result after just one visit. Because RADIESSE® is a long term cosmetic enhancement, and to ensure your satisfaction, your physician might schedule a follow-up visit, where a touch-up treatment may be recommended.

Are there any side effects?

Normal, injection-related reactions, such as mild irritation, swelling, itching, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site may occur. These conditions typically resolve on their own.

Is RADIESSE® permanent?

No. Treatment results are long-lasting, but not permanent. The calcium-based microspheres gradually break down and are safely and naturally absorbed by your body.

How much does it cost?

RADIESSE® treatments are customized for each patient so the price varies. In general, the cost of RADIESSE® is comparable to similar procedures. Please consult your physician to discuss your RADIESSE® treatment plan.
