Schedule appointmentRadiesse dermal filler is a popular cosmetic procedure that can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improve facial contours. This treatment involves injecting a gel-like substance made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) under the skin to add volume and structure. In this article, we will discuss how Radiesse dermal filler works, its applications, benefits, and limitations.
Dr. Rosalia LuketinaRadiesse dermal filler is a cosmetic injection treatment used to restore facial volume and contour. It consists of a synthetic substance called calcium hydroxylapatite, which is found in bones and teeth. The CaHA microspheres are suspended in a gel-like substance and injected into the skin to stimulate collagen production and support skin structure.
After injection into the skin, the CaHA microspheres stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives the skin structure and elasticity. Over time, the CaHA microspheres are gradually absorbed by the body, and the collagen produced by the body helps to maintain the structure and volume created by the dermal filler.
Radiesse dermal filler is often used to treat wrinkles and fine lines, and to contour and shape the face. It is also used to rejuvenate the hands, restoring volume to the backs of the hands, which can become hollow with age.
In addition, Radiesse is used in the form of hyper-diluted Radiesse as a biostimulator. This innovative application can stimulate natural collagen growth and lead to improved skin firmness and quality. The use of hyper-diluted Radiesse makes it possible to achieve long-lasting results that revitalize and refresh the skin from within.
Radiesse is also successfully used to improve skin quality in the décolleté area and, in diluted form, to treat various areas of the body and the face. As a biostimulator, it helps to improve skin texture and ensure a more youthful appearance.
Note: “Hyper-diluted Radiesse” refers to a special technique in which Radiesse is used in a diluted form to stimulate collagen production and improve skin quality.
Radiesse dermal filler consists of synthetic calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. The microspheres are biodegradable and are gradually absorbed by the body, leaving behind the body's natural collagen. The gel consists of carboxymethylcellulose, a substance commonly used in medical and cosmetic products.

Radiesse dermal filler has several advantages over other dermal fillers. First, the results are immediately visible and can last up to 18 months, depending on the patient’s age, skin condition, and the amount of filler used. Second, the procedure is non-invasive and there is minimal downtime. Third, Radiesse dermal filler is safe and well tolerated, with adverse effects occurring only rarely. Finally, the dermal filler can also stimulate collagen production, resulting in long-lasting effects.
Although Radiesse dermal filler is a safe and effective treatment, there are some limitations to consider. The procedure can cause bruising, swelling, and redness, which may last for several days after treatment. There is also the possibility of an allergic reaction to the ingredients in the dermal filler. As with all cosmetic procedures, it is important to have the treatment performed by a professional to ensure safe and effective results.
Radiesse is used to correct and improve nasolabial folds, marionette lines, cheek contours, and volume loss in the hands and face.
The results of Radiesse can last up to a year or longer, as the active ingredient stimulates collagen production and thus improves the skin structure.
For many patients, one session is sufficient to achieve the desired results. In some cases, a refresher treatment may be recommended after a few months to maximize the effects.
