Radiesse Collagen & Elastin Intensifier
WHAT IS RADIESSE TREATMENT?
Radiesse is an injectable treatment that can act like a dermal filler as well as collagen & elastin stimulator. Radiesse, when injected in a certain dilution, will mimic the collagen scaffolding to the skin, to reactivate the dermal fibroblast, which in the end, will trigger new collagen and elastic production. This is similar to promoting or stimulating the repair from within the skin.
Radiesse is a Calcium Hydroxyapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in gel for injection, already mixed with lidocaine for patient’s comfort. It can be metabolized naturally and completely biodegradable.
