    Say Goodbye to Fine Lines and Wrinkles

    Formerly known as Radiance, Radiesse is an innovative soft tissue filler made from a smooth, calcium-based gel used to effectively sculpt features and reshape facial contours. When injected beneath the surface of the skin, Radiesse creates a scaffolding effect that encourages and supports new collagen growth. As a result, your skin’s foundation will be rebuilt, resulting in a natural, healthier appearance.

    How Radiesse Can Help

    Visiting Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery for your consultation gives Dr. Vitenas the opportunity to learn about you and your goals. He can then guide you to the treatment option that is right for you. The results that are created by Radiesse are long-lasting and do not involve the risks that can sometimes be associated with other permanent fillers or implants. Radiesse can effectively be used to non-surgically accomplish a number of exciting goals:

    • Sculpt the jawline and facial features
    • Create contoured cheekbones
    • Eliminate dark hollows beneath the eyes
    • Correct aging hands

    Is Radiesse Right for Me?

    If you’ve been experiencing a loss of volume in your face, or are looking to bring balance to your facial features or wish to rejuvenate the way your hands look, you’re likely an excellent candidate for Radiesse. The injectable is safe for both men and women, of all skin types and ethnicities.

    RadiesseFAQ

    Radiesse is an injectable filler, used to reshape the facial contours and restore a more youthful appearance. Comprised of a calcium-based gel, the filler creates a scaffolding effect under the skin by encouraging and supporting new collagen growth. Radiesse can be used to eliminate dark hollows beneath the eyes, create defined cheekbones, fill in deep creases, and sculpt the jawline.

    Radiesse is created from tiny, smooth calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres, that are suspended in an aqueous gel. The unique makeup of Radiesse ensures consistent, dramatic results.

    Radiesse can benefit both men and women who are experiencing a loss of facial volume, as well as those looking to bring balance to their facial features.

    All injectables, including Radiesse, are administered in a comfortable, private treatment room at Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery, on the corner of Richmond Avenue and Drexel Street in Houston.

    Discomfort tends to be minimal with the Radiesse treatment, although a local anesthetic may be used, depending on the treatment area.

    A thin needle is used to inject the Radiesse beneath the skin.

    Radiesse injections are generally quite quick, with each session typically taking less than an hour to complete.

    Some slight redness and mild swelling may occur after the Radiesse injection. These side-effects can be expected to quickly resolve on their own. Normal activities can be resumed on the same day as the application, without restrictions.

    You’ll be free to return to work or your other normal activities on the same afternoon as your Radiesse treatment. However, as mild swelling and redness are common following the injections, some patients will wait until the following day before going back to work.

    You can expect your results to last up to two years. However, the benefits may last longer in some areas of the face.

    Radiesse is a safe procedure with few serious risks. Like all injectable procedures, there is always a possibility of bruising and swelling. Complications such as facial asymmetry, infection, and nerve damage are rare.

    Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite, semi-permanent soft-tissue filler, created for restoring shape along the cheeks, lower jawline, and hands. The cost will depend on a variety of factors including the treatment area and extent of correction required. On average, one syringe will cost from $700 to $850.
