Radiesse® Dermal Filler in San Diego

Radiesse® is a dermal filler that restores facial volume while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Unlike many fillers that provide only temporary volume, Radiesse works by both lifting and supporting the skin immediately and encouraging long-term collagen formation.

Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel carrier. When injected, the gel matrix provides immediate improvement in facial contours, helping soften moderate to severe wrinkles and folds.

Over time, the CaHA microspheres act as a biostimulatory scaffold, encouraging fibroblasts within the skin to produce new collagen. This gradual process helps strengthen the skin’s structure and improve firmness.

Clinical studies have shown that Radiesse can stimulate collagen production for up to one year and elastin for up to nine months, providing continued improvement even after the gel portion of the filler has been absorbed.

Radiesse is FDA-approved to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds, and is also widely used to restore volume in the hands, where skin thinning and visible veins often develop with age.

Why Radiesse?

Radiesse is often chosen by patients who want more than temporary filling. Because it stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production, it can help improve skin structure and firmness over time, not just add volume.

Radiesse may be a good option for patients who want:

• Improvement in deeper facial folds
• Support for areas that have lost structural volume
• A collagen-stimulating dermal filler rather than a traditional hyaluronic acid filler
• Long-lasting results with gradual skin improvement
• Restoration of volume in aging hands

During your consultation, your treatment plan will be tailored to your facial structure, skin quality, and aesthetic goals.
