Radiesse is a rather unique product used to fill deeper folds in your skin. Because of it's components and duration, Radiesse
The tiny microspheres, made of calcium hydroxylapatite, provide a scaffolding into which your body's own collagen can grow and maintain the material in place. Calcium hydroxylapatite is a natural constituent of bone so you will not need allergy testing. The tiny spheres are injected into the skin within a gel suspension. This gel dissipates as your body's own collagen laces around the spheres, creating a long-lasting correction and smoothing.
New Study Results - Radiesse as a Collagen Builder
Study results are now showing that Radiesse offers some of the same self-collagen production that Sculptra provides, though on a lesser level. Still, this means that even when all the Radiesse has left your skin, some new collagen that your own body produced has taken its place.
Radiesse is a safe, effective and nonsurgical method most often used to lift the depressed fold that runs from the sides of your nose to the sides of your mouth. It is extremely popular with Dr. Fitzgerald's patients both for it's immediate effectiveness and long duration.
Important Pre Treatment Instructions
Radiesse has also proven to be a very versatile facial contouring product and has demonstrated durable augmentation in areas such as chin and cheek where a larger volume is required. It maintains a soft, natural feel and takes on the characteristics of the surrounding skin tissue. Radiesse is now being used as the "filler" to replace lost fullness in the hands. Hand Rejuvenation

Results typically last 1-2 years. The microspheres of CaHA have been shown to last up to seven years clinically. Radiesse should provide a long lasting correction, however individual results may vary, affected by age, skin type, lifestyle and muscle activity.
Can other filler products be used along with Radiesse?
