What is RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler?

 

RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler is an injectable wrinkle filler that works by immediately restoring facial volume to smooth out the signs of aging. Once injected, not only does it immediately add volume but over time, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler begins to stimulate the production of the body's natural collagen for results that may last up to a year or more in many patients.1,2,3

 

What is RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler made from?

 

RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is made of tiny calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. The calcium microspheres are similar to minerals found naturally in the body so allergy testing is not required. Over time, the body absorbs the microspheres and gel, leaving behind only natural collagen.1

Please note that RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is contraindicated in patients with severe allergies manifested by a history of anaphylaxis, with a history or presence of multiple severe allergies (please see Important Safety Information below).

 

How does RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler work?

 

Once injected, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler plumps the skin and replenishes volume lost over time for a more refreshed look. Over time, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler works to stimulate the body to produce collagen naturally.1 Ultimately the body absorbs the product and leaves behind the natural collagen for long-lasting results.2,3

 

RADIESSE Volumizing Filler can be injected in the following locations*:

  • Smile lines: also called the nasolabial folds, are the lines that run from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth

  • Marionette lines: the lines that run downward from the corners of the mouth

  • Corners of the mouth: also called the oral commissure, if these are turned downward it can make you look as though you're frowning

  • Pre-jowl: the area on either side of the chin, where skin can sag due to loss of facial volume

  • Chin wrinkles: horizontal lines that can form on your chin and distract from your smile

 

*RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is FDA-approved for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.

 

 

 

What makes RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler different from other leading dermal fillers?

 

RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is the only dermal filler available composed of calcium-based microspheres, and is clinically proven to stimulate the natural production of collagen, for results that may last up to a year or more in many patients.1,2,3Additionally, in clinical studies with leading hyaluronic acid injectable dermal fillers, results showed that RADIESSE patients were significantly more satisfied with their results than patients treated with other leading wrinkle fillers.2,4 In addition, 30% less RADIESSE Volumizing Filler may be needed for correction when compared to Perlane® injectable gel.4

 

How is treatment with RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler performed? Is it painful?

 

RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is injected under the skin in a safe and quick procedure that can be done over the lunch hour. RADIESSE Volumizing Filler is also FDA-approved to mix with lidocaine (an anesthetic), which means the procedure will be much more comfortable. In fact, in a clinical study, 90% of patients treated reported significant pain reduction when injected with RADIESSE Volumizing Filler mixed with lidocaine.

 

How soon will I see results with RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler, and how long will they last?

 

Immediately upon injection, RADIESSE Volumizing Filler restores volume to smooth out the signs of aging. The natural-looking results may last up to a year or more in many patients.2,3
