Above all, Radiesse is an injectable, skin treatment used to fill specific areas of the face and hands. It addition to filling it will boost your body’s natural collagen, along with filling in wrinkles for the long term and helps your skin develop new collagen in the process.

How is it different?

Unlike most dermal fillers which are made with a natural substance called hyaluronic acid (HA), RADIESSE is made with calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), which is actually firmer than HA fillers.

Therefore providing good support in areas such as the naso labial folds, chin, and jaw line. It lasts 12-14 months and boosting collagen production.

Radiesse® can be used in most areas of the face and some areas of the body.

However, it is not recommended to use Radiesse® to treat the lips or the tear trough (under eye area). Technique is important and practitioners generally classify treatments as either basic, intermediate, or advanced.

Commonly treated areas include:

  • Nasolabial folds (nose to mouth lines)
  • Upper and lower cheeks
  • Oral commissures (corners of the mouth)
  • Marionette lines (lines below the mouth corners)
  • Jaw line
  • Jowls
  • Chin
  • Nose reshaping
  • Temples
  • Back of hands
  • Eyebrows
