As you get older, the collagen production in your body slows down. You see the first signs of this happening as fine lines and wrinkles form as your face begins to lose volume. While you cannot turn back the hands of time, Radiesse can help reverse some of the effects of collagen loss and even increase collagen production.
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is an injectable dermal filler that is used to plump the skin. It adds volume under the skin to smooth out wrinkles. It is frequently used to treat deep folds or hollowness in the mid and lower face, such as:
- Marionette lines
- Nasolabial folds
- Sunken cheeks
Because Radiesse is thicker than other filler options, it is suitable for use where there is a significant volume loss or skin is crepey or sagging.
Like a Gift that Keeps Giving
Like most dermal fillers, you will see immediate results after your Radiesse treatment that will eventually wear off. But you can expect the results to last longer than fillers that are hyaluronic acid-based. Radiesse’s activate ingredient, calcium hydroxylapatite has been shown to help stimulate collagen production, which helps its results last longer.
