How RADIESSE Works

Radiesse is formulated with calcium based microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. When injected, it provides immediate volume and structural support in targeted areas beneath the skin.

Over time, the gel carrier is naturally absorbed, while the microspheres remain in place to support the skin’s underlying framework. This process allows results to develop gradually and fade naturally, making maintenance treatments flexible and adjustable.

What RADIESSE Treats

Radiesse is commonly used to address deeper volume loss and contour concerns. This treatment can help with:

  • Cheek volume loss

  • Jawline definition

  • Chin contouring

  • Nasolabial folds

  • Marionette lines

  • Facial structure support

  • Lower face volume loss

Radiesse may also be used as part of a preventative or maintenance approach to support facial structure and address ongoing volume changes over time.

What to Expect During Treatment

A Radiesse appointment typically lasts 30 to 45 minutes. After a consultation and treatment plan review, the filler is injected into selected areas using a fine needle or cannula, with attention to balance and symmetry.

Downtime is minimal for most patients. Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at injection sites is common and usually resolves within a few days. Most people return to normal activities shortly after treatment.

When You Will See Results

Results from Radiesse are visible immediately after treatment, with continued improvement as swelling subsides. Final results typically settle within one to two weeks.

Radiesse results often last a year or longer, depending on the treatment area and individual factors. Maintenance treatments help preserve results and allow for gradual adjustments as facial structure changes over time.
