Radiesse fillers are a unique type of dermal filler that provide both immediate volume correction and long-term skin rejuvenation. Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers, Radiesse is made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. This biocompatible material is naturally found in the body, making it a safe and effective option for reducing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. The filler provides instant volume and structure upon injection, delivering noticeable results right away.

One of the standout features of Radiesse is its collagen-stimulating ability. After the initial gel carrier is absorbed, the CaHA microspheres remain and continue to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. This means that over time, the skin becomes firmer and more elastic even after the filler itself has been metabolized. This dual-action mechanism makes Radiesse an excellent choice for patients looking for both immediate improvement and gradual, natural-looking skin enhancement over several months.

Radiesse is also FDA-approved for use in the hands, where it restores lost volume and reduces the appearance of tendons and veins for a more youthful appearance. Results from Radiesse treatments can last up to 12 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area and individual metabolism. Because of its thicker consistency, Radiesse is typically recommended for deeper injections and areas with less dynamic movement. Overall, Radiesse offers a long-lasting, collagen-boosting solution for individuals seeking a more youthful and revitalized appearance.
