Radiesse, which is also known by its original name, Radiance is a dermal filler used primarily for facial shaping and contouring and is designed to slowly dissolve away over an 18-month period. Effective for treating deeper facial scarring such as acne scars and for filling shallow cheeks and chin unevenness, Radiesse has been a safely used facial aesthetic product for over 20 years. The product does not contain animal derived ingredients and is based upon a synthetic form of calcium suspended in an aqueous gel. The product spheres containing calcium and phosphate ions that occur naturally in the human body. Radiesse is well tolerated and does not produce an allergic reaction.
The particles or micro spheres contained in the Radiesse product work to fill the skin wrinkles on depressions by creating a form of skin scaffolding into which the body’s own collagen grows. This is the difference of Radiesse compared to other filler treatments, as it actually stimulates the body to create new collagen and encourages tissue regeneration in the area. This, in turn, allows for the long-term effect of the product and also creates the ability to treat larger facial areas. Radiesse is used commonly in reconstructive surgery or where facial wasting may have occurred due to illness. Radiesse can also be used effectively to smooth down-turned lines and wrinkles at the mouth corners and more severe folds such as the lines that extend from the corner of the mouth to the side of the nose known as nasolabial folds. Dr. Rodriguez is also expert at using this filler to correct baggy eyes appearance without resorting to surgery. Periodic touch up injections will help to maintain the effects of Radiesse, which will start to dissipate after 18 month to 24 months.
