Radiesse® synthetic injectable filler has been FDA-approved to treat moderate-to-severe wrinkles, folds and creases around the nose and mouth by augmenting the skin’s natural collagen supply. It is a safe, effective and long-lasting alternative to injectable collagen and other dermal fillers for not only smoothing wrinkles but adding volume and contour to the face for an overall younger, fuller, smoother appearance.
With just one or two Radiesse® treatments, you can enjoy a beautiful, natural look that lasts.
Radiesse® dermal filler is composed of microspheres in a water-based gel. The microspheres – made of a substance called calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) – stimulate the production of collagen to smooth lines and wrinkles, as well as add younger-looking suppleness to the face.
Radiesse® filler is made from minerals similar to those that make up our bones.
There is no need for pretreatment allergy testing, and it is absorbed naturally by the body over time.
Radiesse® filler can be used on many areas of the face and body. Numerous studies have shown Radiesse® filler to be especially effective for filling and correcting smile lines, nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth), marionette lines (from the corners of the mouth to the chin), and other lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth. It can also be used to treat depressed scars and oral commissures.
