Radiesse is a natural calcium-based filler that contains microscopic particles that stimulate new collagen production into the injected area while adding lift, structural support and volume. Radiesse is injected deeper into the skin and causes an immune reaction that regenerates collagen that results in a lift the structures and improvement in deep lines. Liquid facelifts often are based on this substance as it serves to improve the appearance caused by the loss of deep structural bone and tissue resulting from natural aging or injuries. Results last up to a year or more and the number of syringes needed depends on the individual’s degree of structural loss. After about 12 months the effect of RADIESSE will subside and re-treatment will be appropriate. However, many patients find that over time less syringes are usually needed as more collagen is generated by this filler.
