Over time, the skin naturally loses collagen and elasticity, leading to wrinkles, folds, and a loss of youthful contours. While this is a normal part of aging, it often leaves people wishing for a smoother, more lifted appearance. This is where Radiesse®, a non-surgical facial treatment, comes in.
Radiesse is a unique dermal filler that restores volume immediately and stimulates the body’s natural collagen production for longer-lasting improvement.
At Ohio Clinic for Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, patients receive Radiesse treatments from paramedical aestheticians, who have received extensive training to ensure safety and natural results. Our aestheticians are also guided by Dr. Michael H. Wojtanowski, a board-certified plastic surgeon.
What Is Radiesse?
Radiesse is an FDA-approved injectable filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier.
Radiesse is different from hyaluronic acid fillers, which focus on hydration and temporary volume, because it provides structural support while encouraging the body to produce new collagen. This dual-action approach makes it ideal for patients who want both immediate and lasting facial rejuvenation.
Radiesse is commonly used to:
- Smooth moderate-to-severe wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.
- Restore lost volume in the cheeks and midface.
- Improve definition in the jawline and chin.
- Rejuvenate aging hands by restoring fullness and minimizing vein and tendon visibility.
Benefits of Radiesse
Patients in Cleveland often choose Radiesse because of its unique long-term benefits. Key advantages include:
- Immediate volume restoration: Wrinkles and folds appear smoother right after treatment.
- Collagen stimulation: Radiesse helps the body create new collagen, extending results.
- Natural-looking outcomes: Enhances facial contours while maintaining natural expressions.
- Versatility: Effective for facial rejuvenation and hand treatments.
- Durability: Results can last a year or more, often longer than many other fillers.
How Long Does Radiesse Last?
Radiesse results typically last 12–18 months, depending on the treatment area and individual factors. Some patients enjoy the benefits for even longer.
Is Radiesse Safe?
Yes. Radiesse is FDA-approved and has been widely used for many years. Side effects are generally mild, such as temporary swelling or bruising.
Does Radiesse Hurt?
Discomfort is minimal with Radiesse. In fact, it is often combined with a local anesthetic to enhance comfort during injections.
