What is Radiesse?

Radiesse ( previously known as Radiance ) is one of the longest-lasting injectable implants. Because of it's components and duration, Radiesse is more aptly referred to as an implant rather than a filler. It is used for soft tissue augmentation in the correction of deep facial folds and creases and restoration of volume loss in hollow facial areas.

.Because it has lengthy duration and is easily shaped it is perfect injectable product for use in the nose and cheek area. An effective cheek augmentation implant-alternative, when injected orally, the results are smooth without typical bruising.

The tiny microspheres provide a scaffolding into which the body's own tissue can grow and maintain the implant in place. See How Radiesse Works (This short demonstration clip from Bioform loads slowly but helps explain the process.)
