More About Radiesse Wrinkle Filler

When researching dermal fillers, patients are often faced with a number of choices that can be confusing. This is why they often visit a skilled board-certified plastic surgeon who can provide them with detailed information, evaluate their situation and tailor a treatment plan. In fact, many plastic surgeons often recommend Radiesse injections to treat patients who have numerous facial aesthetic concerns.

Radiesse is an advanced anti-wrinkle treatment that temporarily eliminates about 80 percent of facial lines, folds and crow's feet. It can also be used for lip augmentation and to fill in facial scars. In addition, Radiesse restores facial volume and hydrates the skin, which leads to a remarkable, natural-looking outcome.

There are a number of advantages associated with Radiesse that have made this wrinkle filler quite popular among both plastic surgeons and their patients. Radiesse results are immediate and unlike any other filler, may last up to two years.

Patients receive Radiesse treatments through an injection that is administered under the skin, by an experienced plastic surgeon. Some patients may receive injections at multiple sites specifically identified by their cosmetic specialist to treat their individual aesthetic needs.  Local anesthesia is often utilized to minimize any pain and research indicates that when mixed with lidocaine, an FDA-approved topical anesthetic, surgeons can further minimize the possibility of discomfort.

Radiesse is a non-toxic, non-allergenic dermal filler that stimulates natural collagen production, a main protein of connective tissue in humans. Collagen is usually depleted over time, which leads to visible signs of aging. When restored, collagen rejuvenates the whole face. Most patients see significant improvements and are able to enjoy facial youthfulness that they were robbed of with age.

Patients may experience mild discomfort at the injection sites following treatment. Some patients also have slight swelling and bruising, which generally dissolve within two to three days. The best candidates for Radiesse are individuals between 35 and 60 who are looking for a minimally invasive solution to their facial concerns. 

A number of additional non-invasive cosmetic surgery treatments that are popular among patients include: Botox, Restylane, Dysport, Juvederm, microdermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing and/or chemical peels.
