Explore our cosmetic injectables and discover how Radiesse can redefine your natural beauty, restoring confidence and radiance. Step into a world where innovation meets aesthetics and let us guide you on a journey to timeless beauty with enhanced skin quality and visible rejuvenation.
Signs of facial aging begin in the thirties. The lines from the nose to the mouth (nasolabial folds) and mouth to chin (marionette lines) are often caused by lost volume and increasing skin laxity. These areas can be treated with Radiesse® to plump up what time has taken away and restore lost volume. The goal is to minimize shadows on the face and restore natural contours, not overdo things, while achieving immediate volume correction at each injection site.
Radiesse® is a dermal filler made up of microspheres of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA). This filler adds volume while it simultaneously stimulates collagen and helps the body produce collagen naturally. Over time, the body absorbs the gel, leaving behind new collagen that continues to support long-term improvements in structure, elasticity, and overall appearance.
Patients who wish to smooth moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds can benefit from Radiesse® injections. Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding or have an allergy to lidocaine should not receive these injections.
