How radiesse filler work
Radiesse filler works through a dual-action mechanism to achieve its rejuvenating effects on the skin.
Radiesse filler works through a dual-action mechanism to achieve its rejuvenating effects on the skin. Here's how it works:
-
Immediate Volume Restoration: Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. When injected into the skin, Radiesse immediately adds volume to the treated area. The gel carrier provides instant support and structure, helping to fill in wrinkles, folds, and areas of volume loss.
-
Stimulation of Collagen Production: In addition to its immediate volumizing effects, Radiesse also stimulates the body's natural collagen production over time. Collagen is a protein that provides strength and structure to the skin, helping to maintain its firmness and elasticity. As Radiesse is gradually absorbed by the body, the CaHA microspheres remain in place and stimulate the production of new collagen fibers around them.
By stimulating collagen production, Radiesse helps to improve the skin's texture, firmness, and overall quality. This leads to long-term rejuvenation and a more youthful appearance. The combination of immediate volume restoration and collagen stimulation sets Radiesse apart from other dermal fillers, making it a popular choice for facial rejuvenation and enhancement.
It's important to note that Radiesse is biocompatible and gradually metabolized by the body over time. While the CaHA microspheres provide immediate volume, they are eventually broken down and absorbed, leaving behind the newly synthesized collagen for sustained results. The duration of Radiesse's effects varies from person to person but typically lasts around 12-18 months, depending on individual metabolism and the area treated.
