Radiesse
Radiesse and Radiesse + are dermal fillers, scientifically designed to reduce the appearance of moderate to deeper wrinkles. The treatment stimulates the body's natural skin rejuvenation processes, enhancing key components for healthy-looking skin and achieving long-lasting results.
Radiesse is intended for deep dermal and sub-dermal soft tissue augmentation in the facial area and can even be used on the backs of the hands to correct volume loss and reduce the appearance of veins and tendons.
The Radiesse effect
Radiesse is a biostimulator comprising calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a sodium carboxymethylcellulose gel. Radiesse+ contains lidocaine for patient comfort and should always be administered by a qualified medical professional.
Radiesse offers vertical lifting and immediate enhancement, long-term skin rejuvenation through collagen and elastin stimulation, and defined contours of the lower face and jawline. When diluted 1:2 with 0.9% saline, it also smooths lines and wrinkles of the décolleté.
Radiesse has been approved by the FDA since 2006, and has 20+ years of scientific and clinical experience, with it's popularity growing through the years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Radiesse is a volumising dermal filler used to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. It is also used for facial contouring and correcting volume loss in the back of the hands. Composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, Radiesse provides immediate volume and stimulates the body's natural collagen production, leading to long-lasting results.
Radiesse can be injected in various areas to address different concerns: - Nasolabial folds (smile lines) - Marionette lines (lines running from the corners of the mouth to the chin) - Chin wrinkles - Pre-jowl folds - Cheek augmentation and contouring - Jawline definition - Hands to restore volume and reduce the appearance of veins and tendons
Radiesse is versatile and can be used for several purposes, including: - Smoothing facial wrinkles and folds - Enhancing facial contours and definition - Restoring lost volume in the cheeks, hands, and other areas - Improving the overall symmetry and balance of facial features - Stimulating collagen production for long-term skin health
Unlike some other dermal fillers, Radiesse cannot be reversed or dissolved because it is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite, which is gradually metabolized by the body over time. Therefore, it is essential to choose an experienced and qualified practitioner for your Radiesse treatment to ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of complications. The practitioners at Clinetix have over a decade of experience with Radiesse treatments and are global trainers in advanced Radiesse techniques. Their expertise ensures that you receive the highest standard of care, maximizing the effectiveness and safety of your treatment.
The results of Radiesse treatment can last up to 12 to 18 months, depending on the area treated, the individual's metabolism, and other factors. Over time, the body absorbs the gel carrier, leaving behind natural collagen, which continues to provide structure and support to the skin. Maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain the desired effects.
Radiesse Hyperdilute is a specialized technique in which Radiesse is diluted with a mixture of saline and lidocaine. This dilution allows for a more uniform and widespread distribution of the product, making it ideal for treating larger surface areas and providing subtle, natural-looking results. Radiesse Hyperdilute is used to improve skin quality, texture, and elasticity by stimulating collagen production without adding significant volume. This treatment is particularly effective for individuals seeking to enhance skin firmness and smoothness in areas prone to crepiness and laxity. The gradual improvement in skin quality is one of the key benefits of Radiesse Hyperdilute.
