• How Does it Work?
  • Radiesse is an FDA-approved cosmetic dermal filler made of unique calcium-based microspheres suspended in an aqueous gel. This gel is injected into the treatment area, where it immediately adds volume and corrects lines and wrinkles.
    Radiesse is unique because it continues to work after the initial injection. Radiesse stimulates your body’s natural collagen (protein) production for longer-lasting results. Over time, the gel is naturally absorbed by your body and the calcium-based microspheres are metabolized, leaving behind only the natural collagen.

  • Radiesse can be used on various parts of the face and body, including:
    – Nasolabial folds (smiles lines)
