Radiesse in Williamsburg and Buffalo, NY

Radiesse is a collagen-stimulating dermal filler that restores lost volume, smooths wrinkles, lines, and enhances facial contours with subtle, natural-looking volume.

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse provides immediate volume while stimulating the body’s natural collagen production for a refreshed, long-lasting level of skin rejuvenation. Made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier, Radiesse integrates beautifully into the skin, offering results that look natural and last.

How Does Radiesse Work?

Radiesse works in two ways:

Radiesse works differently than traditional hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers by providing immediate volume and stimulating long-term collagen production for sustained skin rejuvenation.

Instant Volume Restoration: Radiesse is formulated with calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Upon injection, the gel instantly plumps the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, folds, and volume loss.
Collagen Stimulation for Long-Term Rejuvenation: Unlike HA fillers, which primarily work by adding temporary volume through water retention, Radiesse acts as a collagen bio-stimulator. As the gel is absorbed, the CaHA microspheres remain, stimulating fibroblast activity and prompting your body to produce more natural collagen. As the collagen in the skin increases, you can enjoy firmer, stronger skin that continues to improve over time.

How Does Radiesse Compare to HA Fillers?

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers: HA fillers attract and bind water to provide volume and hydration. They are best for fine lines, lips, and areas needing soft, flexible enhancement. However, they degrade over time as the body naturally metabolizes the HA.
Radiesse (CaHA Fillers): Instead of relying on water retention, Radiesse physically supports skin structure while triggering collagen regeneration. This makes it ideal for deeper wrinkles, volume loss, jawline contouring, and hand rejuvenation. It also lasts longer than most HA fillers—typically 12 to 18 months.

What is the Treatment Like?

A Radiesse treatment is quick and minimally invasive, typically taking 30 to 45 minutes. A topical numbing agent may be applied to enhance comfort. Our skilled injectors place Radiesse in strategic areas with a meticulous injection technique to restore volume and structure as well as maintain your natural facial harmony.

How Long Do the Results Last?

Radiesse provides immediate improvement, with results that continue to improve as collagen production increases deep within the skin. You should enjoy the results for 12 to 18 months, depending on factors such as metabolism and lifestyle.

Is There Any Downtime?

There is little to no downtime with Radiesse. Some patients may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site, which typically resolves within a few days. Your usual activities can usually be resumed immediately after treatment.
