Radiesse is a filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. Radiesse™ is 100% biocompatible, so no allergy test is required prior to treatment. Radiesse™ is 100% biodegradable, it breaks down gradually over time and is absorbed by the body naturally and safely. Radiesse is injected under the skin surface using a fine needle.

  • A mild anesthetic is mixed with the product for comfort.
  • The injection is performed in the doctor’s office during a consultation.
  • Results are visible after the first treatment.

A follow-up visit is scheduled 10 to 15 days after the initial treatment to assess whether a touch-up is needed.
