PLEASE
CALL 1-888-LASER-15 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. What is Radiesse™? Radiesse™ is approved by the FDA. It is ideal for non-surgical facial contouring, rhinoplasty ("nose-job"), cheek augmentation, acne scars, deep wrinkles and folds. How
does RadiesseTM dermal filler work?
After a thorough cleansing of the area, Radiesse™ will be injected under the skin through a very fine needle into the appropriate layers of the skin for augmentation and contouring. Typically, you will see some mild swelling and redness at the injection site that may last 1-2 days. In most cases you can resume routine activities immediately.
Radiesse™ vs Botox® How different is Radiesse™ from Botox®? Botox® and Radiesse™ are two very different products. Botox® smoothes out existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming by relaxing the underlying muscle. Radiesse™ on the other hand, acts as a safe cosmetic dermal filler to "fill in" the deep recesses on your face to provide a fuller appearance. Patients have reported excellent results when both procedures are used in combination with one another. Side effects of Radiesse™ The safety of Radiesse™ has been well-established by FDA. Its primary component, calcium hydroxylapatite, has been safely used for many years in dental, facial, and orthopedic surgery. Its other components are on the FDA’s G.R.A.S. (Generally Regarded as Safe) list for their safe long-term use in other products. Some common injection-related side effects occur, such as swelling, pain, itching, and tenderness at injection site. When injected in the lips this substance can form nodules, or small lumps, in some patients. Cost of Radiesse™ dermal filler The administration of Radiesse™ is a customized procedure and will vary from person to person. You will work with Dr Hakimian at Laser Touch Medical Clinic to agree on which areas you want to cosmetically enhance. The cost of Radiesse™ is very comparable to other non-surgical cosmetic procedures, and its longer lasting effects are actually more practical for most patients.
