RADIESSE®: What to know about the treatment
Do you feel like your skin is less firm than it once was? Are you looking for a way to minimize signs of aging but do not want to have a surgical procedure performed? Consider RADIESSE® volumizing filler! Our advanced trained nursed and team at Eternity Med Spa in Creve Coeur will the expectations of Radiesse treatment during a personalized consultation.
What Is RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler?
RADIESSE® injectable is an FDA-approved dermal filler that encourages your body to produce natural collagen and reduces volume loss. The body produces collagen to provide your skin with support and structure, but the body’s production declines over time.
RADIESSE® filler is made with a gel containing microspheres of Calcium Hydroxylapatite suspended in it. When a professional injects this dermal filler, the microspheres trigger natural collagen production to smooth the appearance of:
- Chin wrinkles
- Marionette lines
- Pre-jowl folds
- Smile lines
Although we often use it on the face, this treatment may also be used on your hands! RADIESSE® for hand rejuvenation provides targeted volume increases to minimize signs of aging on the back of your hands.
What Could I Expect From A Typical Treatment Session?
The professional will carefully inject these dermal fillers into specific areas of concern during each session. As a result, you may experience some pinching or discomfort at the injection site. Still, there is little to no pain associated with the entire process.
A RADIESSE® treatment session is typically short, and you should be able to resume your usual daily activities! You may notice some tenderness, bruising, or swelling in the treatment areas, but this should subside before you know it!
Results achieved with this dermal filler will vary for each person. Although most enjoy an immediate increase in volume, the best results take some time to enjoy. Results may last up to a year, and we recommend regular treatments to achieve and maintain the best results.
Am I a Good Candidate For RADIESSE®?
RADIESSE® volumizing fillers are a safe and effective treatment option for most healthy adults. Our professionals use RADIESSE® for various skin tones and types, and it is an excellent alternative for those not interested in surgical procedures. However, it is vital to remember that the results are not permanent, and they may be more subtle than those achieved with a surgical procedure.
A consultation with our advanced-trained nurse and staff can help determine if this is the best dermal filler to treat your concerns. In addition, our team can help you develop a personalized treatment plan to promote and maintain the best results.
