WHAT IS RADIESSE®?

RADIESSE is a sculpting filler injected into a treatment site that immediately begins to restore a more youthful appearance. Over time, RADIESSE actually helps to stimulate your body is natural production of collagen to help prevent wrinkles on your face and hands for a year or more. RADIESSE is FDA-approved as safe for use on the face to fill areas around the nose, mouth, and cheeks, as well as on the backs of hands to restore more fullness.


HOW DOES RADIESSE WORK?

Kybella® is an injectable Double Chin Treatment that permanently destroys fat cells in a matter of two to six injections given at monthly intervals. This injection does not fill lines or add collagen, it actually targets and breaks down fat cells in the area directly below the chin. Once fat cells are destroyed, they are not duplicated in the body. After desired results are reached, there will be no other injections needed.


HOW LONG DOES A TREATMENT TAKE?

Treatments are typically of short duration-15 minutes is an average time.


Mechanism of Action

RADIESSE is comprised of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in an aqueous gel carrier.

Once injected, it provides immediate volume and correction but continues to work by stimulating the body to produce its own natural collagen.

Over time, the gel is absorbed and the body metabolizes the CaHA microspheres leaving behind only your own natural collagen.


IS RADIESSE RIGHT FOR ME?

Typically, RADIESSE is right for you if you are an adult between 35 and 60 years old with unwanted wrinkles around your cheeks, mouth, and nose, and/or you have lost natural body fat on the back of your hands. Others that have lost natural body fat because they have or are recovering from an illness are good candidates for RADIESSE as well. Women who are pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant should not use RADIESSE.


HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

As always, this depends on your goals and treatment plan. Typically, patients get the results they are seeking after one treatment.


WILL I NEED RECOVERY TIME?

No, you can resume normal activity after receiving your treatment. You should avoid strenuous activity and avoid sunlight exposure for a short period of time. Your Sparsh Clinic skin care professional will give you all the information you will need.


ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?

RADIESSE is considered nontoxic and hypoallergenic. However, some patients have infrequently noted minor swelling, pain, itching, redness, and bruising at the injection site.


WILL IT HURT?

Your Sparsh Clinic skin care professional will administer RADIESSE just under the skin (subcutaneously) using a syringe with a very fine needle. RADIESSE is FDA-approved to contain a small amount of lidocaine, an anesthetic, to minimize the discomfort of the injection.
