Radiesse

For Healthy, Young Looking Skin!

To create the impression of elastic, young-looking skin, more and more cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists will recommend dermal fillers as the treatment of choice, and Radiesse is one of the fillers constantly coming out on top.

Whether our major concern is looking good for work or for ourselves, it is very common to start having serious concerns when our skin starts showing signs of age.

Because our skin is commonly known as our first line of defense against things like pollutants, dirt, grime and general irritants, it makes sense that it would take a beating, but when we are young, our skin is elastic and recovers a great deal more quickly than it does when we get older.

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is an injectable implant that is used to fill in deep or well-defined wrinkles.

Think of the folds that run down between the nose and the mouth, or other similar creases. These wrinkles can be made significantly less noticeable with the use of dermal fillers, and if this is the plan of treatment that you wish to pursue, there are many options open to you.

You'll find that there are many reasons that Radiesse stands heads and shoulders above the competition. Radiesse is made up of calcium hydroxylaphatite microspheres that are suspended in a gel that is made to be non-reactive with our skins.

Unlike other fillers, it does not need a skin test because the ingredients are completely natural; everything that you can find in Radiesse can be found in your own teeth and bones.

Essentially, over time, your body's collagen will break down, and because collagen is what gives your skin its elasticity and youthful look, it needs to be supplemented.

What does Radiesse Treat?

Fairly reliable, wrinkles start running from your nose to your mouth around the age of twenty-five, and as time goes on, without treatment, they will simply get deeper.

This all-natural filler can effectively and efficiently treat a number of different facial problems. Most wrinkles can be smoothed, as can most scars. Even things like deeper frown lines can be taken care of.

This filler is often used to treat the wrinkles that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth as well as the vertical lines that run along your upper lip. They have also been used to give lips a fuller outline as well as give skin over scars a fuller, more healthy look.

You'll also find that Radiesse is used to treat the difficult marionette lines that run from the corner of the mouth to the chin.

If you are considering Radiesse treatments, you are probably curious about what they are like.

Much like other treatments of this nature, they are quite fast and fairly painless. The procedure itself will take about fifteen minutes total, and there is no effective downtime; if necessary, you can go straight to work, hence the name lunchtime procedure.

When you go in for a treatment, you'll find that the Radiesse has been preloaded into a syringe. You will be given a small amount of local anesthetic, and the Radiesse will be injected directly into the wrinkle, just under your skin.

Because Radiesse is injected, you may find that you experience some swelling and some pain, which is easily controlled with medication. Some people even experience some slight bruising, but that will go down in a few days.

What to Expect?...Instant Gratification!

One of the most gratifying things about Radiesse is that you can see the end result immediately. There is no “plumping” effect, the way there is with other dermal fillers.

Because Radiesse is long-lasting, you'll find that you will have the end effect of the injection immediately. Discuss your goals and ideal results with the doctor performing the procedure and see how many treatments he or she thinks that you need.

Many people are pleased with the great improvements and also with the time frame for the results.

The corrections created can last for years, and though some touchups may be required to further get the look that you are interested in, you'll find that you do not need to come in every three months, the way that other dermal fillers require.

When you are thinking about making sure that you look your best, remember to think about what kind of difference that Radiesse can make. Take a look at your options and make sure that you consider the benefits that Radiesse has to offer.
