Radiesse
The formation of lines and creases on the face and the thinning of lips are a natural part of living, not just aging. They occur when the underlying tissues begin to break down. They also result from years of smiling, frowning, squinting or smoking. In other words, these marks of maturity are inevitable. But their permanence need not be. Now you can dramatically minimize lines and creases and restore vitality to your face with Radiesse.
What will Radiesse look and feel like after you've been treated? As a material, Radiesse is cream-like in texture and remains that way throughout its life. The sensitivity and feeling of enhanced areas are retained. Once injected, its softness resembles that of your normal facial tissue. In fact, your own tissues will integrate with the Radiesse microspheres as a natural process of your body.
Intended results
- Radiesse can smooth and enhance key areas of the face:
- Lines between the nose and mouth, between eyebrows and on the upper lip.
- The so-called "smile lines" and "frown lines."
- Depressions and blemishes like acne scars.
- Renewing or increasing fullness of lips.
- Restoring the natural contours of the cheeks.
Procedure description
- Radiesse is a non-surgical treatment, performed as a simple injection during an
office visit.
- Radiesse is gently injected with a very fine needle designed for cosmetic purposes.
- Radiesse builds up the tissues of the face, reducing folds and creases and
restoring fullness.
- Radiesse does not paralyze or act on the face's muscles.
Recuperation and healing
- Minor swelling from the injection typically disappears within 24 hours
- You should avoid activities that will strain your facial features for 48 hours following treatment as much as possible. Otherwise, you can comfortably return to normal activities after your treatment.
- Results will be noticable immediately and you can expect to enjoy them for up to three or more years.
