RADIESSE™
Radiesse is a dermal filler used for long-term contouring and vertical lift. Radiesse is indicated and often preferred when treating patients who desire a more defined chiseled result, as is typical with the male jawline.
Radiesse is also used for rejuvenating the appearance of aging hands. As we age our hands become thinner with the appearance of bones, veins, and tendons. Radiesse can be used to restore volume and tighten the skin on the hands, giving a more youthful appearance.

Have realistic expectations of the treatment and results
What to expect during the treatment:
On average, your treatment will vary depending on the area but will take approximately 45 minutes. Depending on the area you have decided to treat after your consultation, a topical numbing cream and ice pack will be applied to keep you comfortable.
Our Nurse Injectors will choose the most appropriate injection technique based on the area you want treated. The two most common injection technique are: needle technique or cannula technique. Both can be used in combination to achieve best results and this can be discussed during the consultation. The treatment itself is straight forward and our Nurse Injectors will ensure you are comfortable as they inject the filler. Once treatment is completed, you can ice the area as needed to reduce any swelling or bruising.
