Radiesse®

Radiesse®

What is Radiesse®?

Radiesse® is a unique dermal filler and collagen-stimulating injectable treatment designed to restore lost volume, improve skin firmness, and enhance overall skin quality. It provides immediate lifting and contouring, while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production for long-term skin improvement.

The active ingredient in Radiesse is Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) — a biocompatible substance naturally found in the body, making it both safe and highly effective.

How Does Radiesse® Work?

Radiesse works in two powerful ways:

 

  1. Immediate Volume & Lift

    Once injected, the CaHA microspheres instantly provide structural support, restoring volume and contour to the treated area.

  2. Long-Term Collagen Stimulation

    Over time, the CaHA microspheres stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. As the gel carrier is gradually absorbed, your own collagen develops in its place — improving firmness, elasticity, and skin quality.

This dual-action approach makes Radiesse ideal for both instant rejuvenation and long-term skin strengthening.

    Radiesse is injected into targeted areas using fine needles or cannulas, depending on the area and technique used.
