Follow Frequently Asked Questions about Radiesse®
How is a Radiesse® treatment performed?
Radiesse® is injected into the skin through a simple, safe, convenient procedure administered in a physician's office with the use of a local anesthetic.
Is the treatment painful?
Since Radiesse® is mixed with an anesthetic called lidocaine, the pain is significantly
reduced, resulting in a more comfortable treatment with little or no downtime.
How many treatments will I need?
Many patients will achieve their desired result after just one visit. Because Radiesse® is a long term cosmetic enhancement, and to ensure your satisfaction, your physician might schedule a follow-up visit, where a touch-up treatment may be recommended.
Is Radiesse® permanent?
No. Treatment results are long-lasting, but not permanent. The calcium-based microspheres gradually break down and are safely and naturally absorbed by your body.
Is Radiesse® safe?
Yes. Hundreds of thousands of patients have experienced Radiesse® and through years of
clinical studies and independent research, Radiesse® has proven to be safe and effective.
With Radiesse®, you get FDA-approved, safe, clinically-tested reliability.
Are there any side effects?
Normal, injection-related reactions, such as mild irritation, swelling, itching, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site may occur. These conditions typically resolve on their own.
