Radiesse FAQs
Can Radiesse be dissolved?
Radiesse isn’t dissolvable like some other fillers. Instead, it gradually breaks down over time as your body processes the product and builds collagen.
What is Radiesse made of?
Radiesse is made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), a substance that helps provide immediate structure while also supporting collagen production beneath the skin.
Is Radiesse a filler?
Yes, but it’s a little different from traditional fillers. Radiesse provides immediate volume while also working as a biostimulator, helping your skin rebuild collagen over time.
Does Radiesse migrate?
When placed correctly, Radiesse stays where it’s injected. Following aftercare instructions helps ensure everything settles evenly.
Is anesthesia or numbing required for Radiesse?
Most patients find treatment very manageable. A numbing agent, such as lidocaine, is usually used to keep you comfortable during the process.
How much does Radiesse cost in Brandon, FL?
The cost of Radiesse can vary depending on the treatment area and the number of sessions recommended. During your consultation at Balance Aesthetic & Wellness, your provider will review your personalized treatment plan and pricing details. Financing options through Cherry and CareCredit may be available to help make treatments more accessible.
Is Radiesse safe?
Radiesse is FDA-approved and has been used for many years in both cosmetic and medical settings. When performed by an experienced provider, it’s considered a safe and reliable option.
How long does Radiesse last?
Radiesse results can last up to a year or more. While individual experiences may vary, its unique ability to stimulate collagen production contributes to its long-lasting effects.
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness at the injection site. These typically resolve within a few days.
Can Radiesse be combined with other treatments?
There is little to no downtime associated with Radiesse. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for a short period to optimize results and minimize potential side effects.
Are there any age restrictions for Radiesse treatments?
Radiesse is generally suitable for adults looking to address signs of aging or enhance their facial features. Hetal can assess your specific needs and eligibility during the consultation.
