Radiesse is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure recommended for those who’d like to lessen the wrinkles and creases around the nose and mouth areas. It’s also advisable for those who’d like to correct some facial scars.
Product Contents
This injectable filler is popular, because it’s non-toxic, bio-compatible and non-allergenic. This filler is made of calcium hydroxyl apatite microspheres in a carboxymethyl cellulose gel. Active contents of the compound are calcium and phosphate ions, which are natural elements in your body. On the other hand, the gel is composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, glycerin, and sterile water.
Since it’s a generally safe product to use for injection, people from about 35 to 60 years of age have been having cosmetic treatment using this. Aside from this, its effect is also long lasting. In some cases, visible effects last for about 2 years.
But Radiesse is still a temporary cosmetic solution. You will need to have the procedure repeated after some time if you’d like to maintain its effects on your skin. Another injectable filler that’s considered one of the safest these days is Perlane.
Treatment Using this Product
Before the injection filler, a local anesthesia will be given by your doctor since you may encounter some discomfort even if you’ll be injected using a fine needle. The doctor will carefully choose areas where he will inject the right amount of filler. After the doctor injects the substance under the dermis and subcutis layer, effects can be observed within 7 days.
Since this is a minimally invasive procedure like Juvederm, collagen, and liquid facelift, some doctors even recommend patients to have another cosmetic procedure to go with Radiesse. Among these is skin resurfacing through peels, microdermabrasion or laser treatment.

Recovery and Possible Risks
Swelling may appear, but should be very minimal and would disappear in about 36 hours. You may also experience bruising and discomfort, but should be manageable. You will be advised by your doctor to stay away from the sun for a few days.
In case you’ll experience prolonged or sever pain, swelling or bruising, contact your doctor immediately. Another possible risk you may encounter is the appearance of nodules. Surgery or steroids might be needed if this condition arises.
