The
extent of the procedure may involve one or several areas of the
face, and the appropriate dosage for each area may vary, making it
difficult to provide a meaningful cost estimate until you are
examined by a doctor.
The cost for Radiesse®
typically ranges from $240 to $645 depending on the syringe amount.
Treatment Options
Radiesse® is ideal for the treatment of lines and wrinkles around
the nose and mouth. These lines are typically above the mouth,
running from the nose to the corners of the upper lip (Nasolabial
Folds), or pointing down from the corner of the mouth towards the
chin (Marionette Lines). Radiesse® is also FDA Approved for
restoration and/or correction of the signs of facial fat loss (lipoatrophy)
in people with human immunodeficiency virus.

LONG LASTING RESULTS
The results of a Radiesse®
treatment are immediate. Radiesse® dermal filler typically lasts a
year or more, longer than the former leading filler, saving you time
and money. Since results may vary, be sure to discuss your
expectations with your experienced Radiesse® provider.
How It Works
Radiesse® works with your
body, below the skin’s surface, to stimulate the production of
collagen and encourage tissue regeneration. It does more than just
temporarily fill-in facial lines and wrinkles ─ it rebuilds your
skin’s foundation. You get immediate results and look younger,
longer.
Radiesse®
Microsphere Technology™
Radiesse® is made of very
small, smooth calcium hydroxylapitite (CaHA) microspheres, which are
suspended in a water-based gel carrier. As Radiesse® is injected, the
gel and Radiesse® Microspheres form a “scaffold”, stimulating
collagen production and encouraging tissue growth in and around the
injection area. This “partnership” between Radiesse® and your own
body creates a natural look, comprised of your own tissue and
Radiesse® Microspheres.
Over time, your body
absorbs the gel carrier while collagen has started to grow and
infiltrate the area, replacing the gel with your own, natural
tissue. The Radiesse® Microspheres continue to provide the support
and structure for your body to grow new tissue and collagen until
the Microspheres are also safely and naturally absorbed into your
body.
A Safe
and Effective Treatment
Over 200,000 patients
have experienced Radiesse® and more than 4,000 physicians and their
skilled nursing staff have been trained to provide FDA Approved
Radiesse® treatments. Years of rigorous industry and independent
research worldwide, has proven that Radiesse® is safe and effective,
with virtually no risk of allergic reaction. Radiesse® is
biocompatible and is naturally absorbed by your body over time,
working with your body to rebuild the fresh, natural look you
desire.
Mechanism of Action
 |
Radiesse® (CaHA+Gel) initially performs as a filler. |
 |
Macrophages start to degrade gel carrier (2-3 Months). |
 |
Macrophages dissolve gel carrier as new collagen forms
"scaffold" around particles. Collagen surrounds microspheres
of CaHA and provides for a long term augmentation (1-2 year
augmentation). |
 |
CaHA particles start to degrade and are metabolized by
macrophages (2-3 years). |
Starting Radiesse® Treatment
Step 1: Find a Radiesse® treatment provider
The first step is to visit an experienced physician who regularly
uses Radiesse®. During the consultation, your doctor will examine
your skin and discuss how a Radiesse® treatment can correct facial
lines and wrinkles to restore a healthy and vital appearance. Since
no skin-testing is required, you can receive treatment the same day.
Step 2: Quick and immediate, in-office procedure with no down-time
Radiesse® treatment is administered through a safe, simple procedure.
Typically performed in a doctor’s office, with the use of a local
anesthetic, Radiesse® dermal filler is injected under the skin in a
continuous stream through a very fine needle into the appropriate
facial planes needed for augmentation and correction.
Step 3: Long lasting results
Radiesse® is a convenient in-office procedure that can be completed
quickly – even over a lunch hour. You will see the results of your
Radiesse® treatment immediately. Radiesse® treatments have little to
no down time, with most patients returning to normal activities soon
after treatment. Your doctor will provide you with specific
instructions and details of what to expect during and after
treatment.
