Monroe County Skin Rejuvenation – Non Surgical Options – Radiesse® Injections

Radiesse® is an FDA-approved, next-generation dermal filler that is setting a new standard for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles such as nasolabial folds. Made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, Radiesse is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure giving you immediate, visible improvement of folds and wrinkles, and providing long-lasting and beautiful results. In many patients, the effects of Radiesse may last a year or more. Offering clinically proven safety and longevity, Radiesse is a convenient treatment that stimulates the body to produce new collagen — often with just one or two office visits.

Radiesse Procedure Information

Radiesse contains patented advanced calcium-based microsphere technology that actually stimulates your body to make new collagen. Results are immediate and last for an average of one year. Radiesse is FDA approved for nasolabial folds. Nasolabial folds are the lines or creases that run from the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth. These creases or folds may begin to appear more prominent as we age. As they do so, the lines begin to frame the mouth, creating an older, more tired or upset appearance. Until now, treatment options have been limited to invasive operations (such as facial implants) and short-acting fillers that require multiple touchups to maintain results past a few months. Now, however, clinical studies prove that Radiesse® treatments are a long lasting alternative to leading fillers and deliver a natural look that lasts.

Radiesse dermal filler can address many facial aesthetic and corrective needs. Because the results are natural looking and long lasting, many patients turn to Radiesse to achieve a soft and natural look. In addition, Radiesse may result in fewer office visits for re-treatments, making it a cost-effective alternative to other dermal fillers.
