What Is Radiesse® Volumizing Filler?

Ideal wrinkle reduction is achieved by replenishing your skin’s lost volume. Upon injection, RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler immediately provides the volume and lift needed to diminish the signs of aging because of the calcium-based microspheres and gel that comprise the product. But what’s unique about RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is that it acts as a scaffold under the skin, providing structure and stimulating your own natural collagen to grow. This process continues for several months, which extends the initial effect of RADIESSE Volumizing Filler. Best of all, the natural results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients, which is why more and more cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists, and other medical professionals are choosing RADIESSE Volumizing Filler to achieve long-lasting facial rejuvenation.

RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler does more than just fill these troublesome lines, it immediately restores lost volume and stimulates the production of your own natural collagen; something no other filler does. Best of all, results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients.

Fortunately, treatment with RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler can replenish youthful volume and stimulate collagen production in this area, minimizing the appearance of those pesky facial wrinkles and folds that mask our smiles.1 Best of all, results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients.
