Radiesse, formerly known as Radiance, is an injectable facial filler comprised of a calcium-based gel which can reshape the facial contours. Radiesse creates a scaffolding effect when injected beneath the surface of the skin, encouraging and supporting new collagen growth. The skin’s foundation is rebuilt, resulting in a more youthful appearance. Radiesse can literally redesign the face by eliminating dark hollows beneath the eyes, creating cheekbones, filling deep creases, and sculpting the jawline. The results are long lasting and do not involve the risks associated with permanent fillers or implants.
Good candidates for Radiesse treatment include men and women who have experienced a loss of volume in the face or those who are looking to bring balance to the facial features. The Radiesse injection is an in-office procedure that takes less than an hour to complete. Depending on where the filler is placed, local anesthesia and a dental block may be used. The Radiesse is injected beneath the skin using a thin needle.
Patients may experience some slight redness and mild swelling after the injection, though these side effects tend to resolve quickly. Work and other normal activities can be resumed immediately after treatment, though some patients prefer to wait until the redness and swelling have subsided. The results of Radiesse can last up to two years or longer in some areas of the face.
