Radiesse is a wrinkle filler that is long-lasting and effective for the treatment of facial wrinkles, skin folds and many other applications in facial contouring. Radiesse has become a popular product among cosmetic surgeons because it is biocompatible (doesn’t require an allergy test) durable (long lasting) and easy to use.
Made with a water-based gel that contains small calcium microspheres, Radiesse acts as a “scaffolding” for new collagen to form within your skin, making it ideal for long-lasting wrinkle correction.
Indications for Radiesse Injection
Plastic surgeons use Radiesse in many cosmetic applications. Some of the common treatments include correction of conditions such as:
- Moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds
- Nasolabial folds (traveling from each side of the nose to the mouth)
- Marionette lines / oral comissures
- Sunken or recessed cheeks
- Depressed scars
- Nasal contouring and augmentation

What to Expect During Treatment
Before your Radiesse treatment, the facial area is cleansed and topical anesthetic may be administered. Radiesse is then injected beneath the skin at a specific depth and the area is briefly massaged to promote a smooth result.
After Treatment
During the months that follow your office visit, your body will gradually metabolize the Radiesse and clear it away. Certain studies have documented results with Radiesse lasting one year on average, but most patients return for another treatment after about 12 to 18 months. Although side effects are uncommon, immediately after your injection, you may experience mild irritation, edema, swelling, itching, discoloration, or tenderness at the injection site.
