Radiesse (1.5ml)

What is Radiesse® 1.5 ml?
This injectable subdermal implant is completely biodegradable, non-pyrogenic, latex-free, cohesive, and semi-solid, and it has been steam sterilized. The Radiesse gel eventually dissipates and is replaced by soft tissue, leaving behind the calcium hydroxylapatite, giving the patient non-permanent yet long-term augmentation or restoration of their dermal structure.
What are the benefits of this product?
Radiesse 1.5 ml is the larger sized volume option of the Radiesse treatments available; as such is it particularly suited for treating more severe volume deficiencies and skin depressions. By far, the largest advantage Radiesse has over other dermal fillers is its longevity; patients have reported results that last up to a year, and in some cases up to 2 years.
How does this product work?
This volumizing dermal filler immediately adds volume and lift to your patient’s skin to tighten the skin and smooth out wrinkles as well as fill in facial depressions. Radiesse also gets to work acting as a scaffold to encourage collagen growth and build up the structure of the skin, making its effects last longer than the initial boost of volume.
What areas can I treat with this product?
Use for augmentation of the cheeks, chin, face or corner of the mouth. In general, use this filler for correction of facial skin depressions.
