RADIESSE® - A Filler That Lasts

Radiesse® dermal filler is made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, and is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure. Radiesse® dermal filler is the ideal choice for total facial contouring. It can restore a healthy, youthful appearance, enhance your existing features, help you defy age and gravity, and increase your confidence - all without invasive surgery or scarring.

The dermal filler works with your own body in a remarkable way. Upon injection, it immediately adds volume to safely contour, correct, and beautify facial features. And unlike other fillers, Radiesse® dermal filler continues to work over time. With its patented micro-sphere technology, it starts a process called collagenesis, stimulating your body to produce new collagen and encouraging collagen to grow around the injection area. The dermal filler actually helps your body create its own naturally younger look, setting a new standard in facial contouring and augmentation.

How Long Does Radiesse® Last

Radiesse® has been proven to last up to a year. If you get a touch up every three months or so, this treatment can last about two years. The layering effect is what gives this dermal filler its extra staying power. Results will vary by patient, depending on the technique of your doctor, your metabolism and your amount of movement.

Treatment with Radiesse® dermal filler is so simple and convenient, it can be performed during a lunch hour. You'll see the results right away - and these results may last up to a year or more for many patients. The long-lasting effects of Radiesse® dermal filler can reduce the need for re treatment, which saves you time and money compared with other fillers.

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 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 filler is injected beneath the skin using a thin needle.

What to Expect

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.

Radiesse® Cost

Generally, the cost ranges from $650 to $800 per syringe. Although this price range is higher than that of other cosmetic fillers (such as Sculptra® and Restylane®), RADIESSE® offers longer-lasting results, requiring less frequent treatments, thus saving the patient money in the end. At Wade Laser Clinic, we charge$600 per syringe.
