Radiesse

Radiesse Treatment is a dermal filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. It is used in aesthetic medicine to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, and for enhancing facial contours by providing immediate volume and stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. At our London, Dublin, and Dubai clinics, we offer Radiesse treatment tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking and long-lasting results.

What is Radiesse®?

RadiesseTreatment is a dermal filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. It is used in aesthetic medicine to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, and for enhancing facial contours by providing immediate volume and stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. At our London, Dublin, and Dubai clinics, we offer Radiesse treatment tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking and long-lasting results.

How Does Radiesse® Work?

Radiesse treatment works by providing immediate volume under the skin once injected, and importantly, it acts as a scaffold under the skin, providing structure and stimulating your own natural collagen to grow. This process continues for several months, which extends the initial effect. Radiesse® is eventually absorbed by the body, leaving behind the natural collagen for long-lasting results.

Radiesse® Treatment Protocol

The treatment with Radiesse® at our clinic includes the following steps:

1. Consultation: Discussing your aesthetic concerns and goals to determine if Radiesse treatment is the best suited treatment.
2. Preparation: The treatment area is cleaned, and a local anesthetic may be applied to ensure comfort.
3. Injection: Radiesse® is carefully injected using a cannula into the predetermined areas of the face.
4. Post-Treatment Care: Minimal downtime is needed, and you can return to your normal activities shortly after treatment. Instructions might include avoiding excessive sun or heat exposure and refraining from strenuous activities for a day or two.

Benefits of Radiesse®

Immediate Volumisation: Provides quick results by restoring lost volume in areas like cheeks, jawline, and nasolabial folds.
Collagen Stimulation: Encourages the production of natural collagen, improving skin quality over time.
Long-Lasting Results: Effects are durable, typically lasting a year or more, depending on the individual’s metabolism and lifestyle.
Non-Toxic and Non-Allergenic: Composed of substances similar to those found naturally in the body, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.

Risks of Radiesse®

Radiesse® is considered safe and effective, but like all medical procedures, it carries some risks, including:

Redness, Swelling, and Bruising: Common side effects that usually resolve within a few days.
Lumps or Bumps: Occasionally, small lumps may form at the injection site but often resolve naturally or with minimal intervention.
Infection: A rare but potential complication that can be mitigated by following proper post-treatment care.

Longevity of Radiesse®

The results of Radiesse® are both immediate and long-lasting. Initially, you will see an immediate improvement in the treated areas. The natural collagen growth means that your skin will continue to improve over the following months. The effects of Radiesse® typically last for about 12 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area and your body’s response to the fillers.

This treatment can attract patients who are concerned about the aging appearance of their hands.

Smoothing of Moderate to Severe Wrinkles

Radiesse® can smooth out deep folds and wrinkles, including nasolabial folds (from the nose to the corners of the mouth), which are often some of the first signs of aging that concern patients.

Jawline Definition

By enhancing the contour of the jawline, Radiesse® can provide a more defined, chiseled appearance. This treatment can attract patients looking to achieve a more pronounced jawline without surgical interventions.

Chin Augmentation

Radiesse® can be used to enhance the chin area, helping to improve facial harmony by balancing proportions. This non-surgical chin enhancement is an attractive option for patients wanting to avoid the risks and downtime associated with surgery.
