Radiesse Fillers Specialist in Highland, NY

Radiesse is a type of dermal filler that is used most frequently to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles, creases, or folds that develop in the skin. It is particularly effective in reducing the appearance of the deep creases that develop from the corner of the mouth to the corner of the nose, also known as nasolabial folds. Some patients will also use Radiesse injections to restore volume in the skin on the back of their hands. This type of dermal filler is a very popular treatment option for those who would benefit from other dermal filler options due to its ability to provide very fast-acting results, with the filler significantly reducing the appearance of facial creasing immediately following administration.

Radiesse also works by stimulating collagen production, meaning the results will continue to develop to provide the final results around one week after treatment, but these results will be much longer lasting than most other types of dermal fillers.

Patients who are aged between 30 and 60 years old are the most common recipients of Radiesse, receiving injections to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkling around the mouth, nose, and even forehead. It is particularly effective in smoothing out deep nasolabial folds that are otherwise often difficult to combat. Radiesse is an anti-aging treatment that helps to restore collagen in the skin that has been gradually lost due to aging, making it a fantastic treatment option for patients who are looking to reduce the appearance of aging in their skin. It is a safe and FDA-approved anti-aging treatment, making it a great and highly recommended option for many patients, but it will not always be the best option for every single patient as not everyone requires both the filling and increased collagen production.

Radiesse is a type of dermal filler that is made with ingredients that are unique and differentiate it from other types of fillers. While most other types of dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance that contributes to smooth, supple skin, Radiesse is made with calcium hydroxylapatite, which is a bit stiffer than hyaluronic acid, making it better suited for treating areas that could use that extra support. This means that Radiesse is often recommended for areas such as the nasolabial folds, the jawline, and the chin. Calcium hydroxylapatite is also very effective in stimulating the increased production of collagen, which naturally decreases in production due to the aging process, leading to the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and laxity in the skin. This increased production of collagen restores that structure and volume to the skin, reducing the visible and physical effects of aging in the skin, and also allowing for longer-lasting results as the collagen continues to be produced.

Since Radiesse works by not just filling in those deep creases and folds in the skin but also stimulates increased production of collagen, the results provided from these injections can last significantly longer than most other types of dermal fillers. Most patients can enjoy the anti-aging results for at least 1 year, likely closer to 18 months, and in many cases will be able to experience results that last up to 2 years. To sustain the beautiful results for as long as the patient wishes, it is common to continue receiving the injections every 7 months or so to ensure that collagen production does not have an opportunity to decrease again. The collagen will continue to be increasingly produced for around 6 months following injections, allowing for the results to continue developing over that period.

To help sustain these results even further, it is highly recommended that patients follow good skin care regimens that consist of high-quality products to ensure that the skin remains sufficiently hydrated and cleansed daily. Other recommendations and instructions for sustaining the results will be provided by the Radiesse specialist for each patient. For more information, please contact us or book an appointment.
