The Next Generation in Long Lasting Wrinkle Correction
Radiesse® is an FDA-approved, next-generation dermal filler that is setting a
new standard for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles such as nasolabial
folds. Made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel,
Radiesse is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive
procedure giving you immediate, visible improvement of folds and wrinkles,
and providing long-lasting and beautiful results. In many patients, the effects
of Radiesse may last a year or more. Offering clinically proven safety and
longevity, Radiesse is a convenient treatment that stimulates the body to
produce new collagen — often with just one or two office visits. Get beautiful

How does Radiesse work?
Radiesse® injections work below the skin's surface to stimulate the body to
produce new collagen. Radiesse does more than just temporarily fill in facial
lines and wrinkles – it actually provides facial volume. You get immediate
results that are long lasting.
Radiesse Microsphere Technology
Radiesse injections consist of very small, smooth calcium hydroxylapatite
(CaHA) microspheres that are suspended in a water-based gel carrier.
Radiesse stimulates the body to produce new collagen, correcting facial
wrinkles. This enables Radiesse to create a natural look that lasts.
Though your body will absorb the gel carrier over time, collagen will start to
grow and infiltrate the area in the meantime, thus replacing the gel with your
own collagen. Radiesse continues to stimulate the body to produce new
collagen until the microspheres are also safely and naturally absorbed into
your body.
* Radiesse® Mechanism of Action: Photo 1Radiesse (CaHA+Gel) initially
performs as a filler
* Radiesse® Mechanism of Action: Photo 2Macrophages start to degrade gel
carrier (2-3 Months)
* Radiesse® Mechanism of Action: Photo 3Macrophages dissolve gel carrier
as new collagen forms. Collagen growth provides for a long term
augmentation that may last for a year or more in many patients.
* Radiesse® Mechanism of Action: Photo 4CaHA particles start to degrade
and are metabolized by macrophages.
A Safe and Effective Treatment
Hundreds of thousands of patients have experienced FDA-approved
Radiesse, and thousands of physicians and their skilled nursing staffs have
been trained worldwide to provide Radiesse treatments. Years of rigorous
industry testing and independent research has proven that Radiesse injections
are safe and effective, with virtually no risk of allergic reaction. Radiesse is
biocompatible and is naturally absorbed by your body over time. Radiesse
works with your body to correct facial wrinkles and provides the long lasting,
natural look you desire.
Treatment Options
Radiesse® is ideal for the treatment of facial lines and wrinkles around the
nose and mouth. These lines typically follow one of two patterns, running from
the nose to the corners of the upper lip (nasolabial folds) or pointing down
from the corners of the mouth towards the chin (marionette lines). Clinically
proven to reduce facial wrinkles and smile lines safely and effectively,
Radiesse is also FDA-approved for the restoration and/or correction of the
signs of facial lipoatrophy) in people with human immunodeficiency virus.
Nasolabial Folds
Nasolabial folds are wrinkles that run from the sides of the nose to the corners
of the mouth. Among the first signs of aging, these facial lines are considered
to be one of the most difficult cosmetic defects to correct. Radiesse has been
proven to correct these wrinkles and can help you regain a youthful, natural
look that lasts. Learn more about correction of nasolabial folds.
Smile Lines
Smile line are the common facial lines and wrinkles that appear on the
cheeks. One way in which Radiesse corrects these lines is by stimulating the
body to produce new collagen.

face, can result in sunken cheeks, hollow eyes, and facial indentations.
