Radiesse
Volume now. Collagen later. Radiesse provides immediate lift while stimulating your body to build lasting, natural structure.
What Can Radiesse Treat?
Lift. Contour. Rebuild.

Science
How It Works
Radiesse is made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Upon injection, the gel provides immediate volume. Over time, the CaHA microspheres stimulate fibroblasts to produce new collagen, creating a natural scaffold that supports the skin long after the gel is absorbed.
Dual Action
Immediate gel-based volume + long-term collagen stimulation. As the gel is naturally absorbed, your own collagen takes over.
"Build structure, not just fill lines."

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) dermal filler and biostimulator. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that only add volume, Radiesse provides immediate lift while stimulating your body to produce new collagen for longer-lasting, natural results.
How long do Radiesse results last?
Radiesse results typically last 12–18 months, often longer than hyaluronic acid fillers. Because it stimulates your own collagen, you may see continued improvement even after the initial filler has been absorbed.
Is Radiesse a filler or a biostimulator?
It is both. Radiesse provides immediate volume (like a traditional filler) while the CaHA microspheres stimulate fibroblasts to produce new collagen over time (biostimulation). This dual action is what makes it unique.
Can Radiesse be used for cellulite?
Yes. Radiesse is FDA-approved for cellulite treatment on the body. When injected into cellulite-prone areas, it adds structural support beneath the skin and stimulates collagen to smooth dimpling and improve skin texture.
Does it hurt?
Radiesse contains lidocaine for comfort. Most patients experience mild discomfort during injection. A numbing cream can be applied beforehand for additional comfort.
How is Radiesse different from Juvederm or Restylane?
Juvederm and Restylane are hyaluronic acid fillers that add volume and attract water. Radiesse uses calcium hydroxylapatite, which provides volume and actively stimulates collagen production. Radiesse tends to last longer and is ideal for deeper folds and structural support.
Can Radiesse be used on the hands?
Yes. Hand rejuvenation is one of the most popular uses for Radiesse. It restores volume to aging hands, conceals visible tendons and veins, and stimulates collagen for lasting improvement.
Is there downtime?
There is minimal downtime. You may have swelling, redness, or mild bruising for 2–5 days. Most patients return to normal activities immediately, though you should avoid intense exercise for 48 hours.
Are there side effects?
Common side effects include:
- Swelling and redness at injection sites
- Mild bruising
- Tenderness or firmness at treatment area
- Small lumps or nodules (usually temporary)
These are temporary and typically resolve within 1–2 weeks. Massage the area as directed by your provider to smooth any lumps.
How much does Radiesse cost?
Cost depends on the number of syringes needed and the treatment areas. You will receive clear, upfront pricing during your consultation. View pricing here.
