Radiesse

As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen, elasticity, and volume. This can lead to sagging, wrinkles, and a tired appearance. Radiesse is an FDA-approved dermal filler that restores volume, smooths wrinkles, and stimulates the production of your body’s own collagen to rejuvenate your appearance naturally.

At Eros Beauty And Wellness in San Diego, we provide customized Radiesse treatments tailored to your unique facial structure and aesthetic goals. Whether you are looking to restore youthful contours, smooth deep lines, or enhance facial features, our team of experts ensures safe, effective, and natural-looking results.

Add Lost Facial Volume with Radiesse^®

Radiesse in San Diego

Radiesse is a dermal filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. These microspheres are biocompatible, meaning they are naturally compatible with your body and gradually metabolized over time.

Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers, Radiesse not only restores volume immediately but also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. This collagen stimulation improves skin firmness, elasticity, and texture over time, offering longer-lasting results.

Radiesse is commonly used to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles, including:

Nasolabial folds – lines running from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth
Marionette lines – lines extending from the corners of the mouth toward the chin
Cheek volume loss – hollowed or sagging cheeks

Additionally, Radiesse is FDA-approved for rejuvenating the hands by restoring volume and reducing the appearance of veins and tendons.

Benefits of Radiesse

Radiesse provides several advantages over other dermal fillers, making it a popular choice among patients seeking both aesthetic and functional improvements:

Immediate Volume Restoration – Radiesse delivers instant results, lifting and contouring facial features immediately after treatment.
Long-Lasting Effects – While individual results vary, Radiesse effects can last up to 18–24 months, longer than many other fillers.
Collagen Stimulation – Over time, the calcium-based microspheres stimulate collagen production, improving skin quality and elasticity.
Versatility – Radiesse can enhance multiple areas of the face and hands, including cheeks, jawline, chin, and under-eye hollows.
Non-Surgical Solution – Radiesse offers a minimally invasive alternative to surgical facelifts, with minimal downtime.

Radiesse Treatment Areas

At Eros Beauty And Wellness, our Radiesse treatments target the following areas:

Cheeks

Radiesse restores lost volume in the midface, enhancing cheekbones and lifting sagging skin. The result is a natural, youthful contour.

Nasolabial Folds and Smile Lines

By smoothing deep wrinkles around the nose and mouth, Radiesse restores harmony to your facial structure while preserving natural expressions.

Marionette Lines

Marionette lines can create a downturned or sad expression. Radiesse fills these lines, softening your appearance and lifting the mouth corners.

Jawline and Chin

Radiesse enhances the definition of your jawline and chin, creating a balanced and sculpted profile.

Hands

Volume loss in the hands can make them appear aged. Radiesse restores youthful fullness, reducing the prominence of veins and tendons.

Less Conventional Uses of Radiesse

While primarily used for facial rejuvenation, Radiesse can also address unique cosmetic and functional concerns:

Non-Surgical Cheek Lifts – Patients seeking subtle lifting without surgery benefit from Radiesse’s collagen-stimulating properties.
Jawline Contouring for Facial Harmony – Radiesse can reshape and refine the jawline, creating a more balanced look.
Hand Rejuvenation – Ideal for patients who want to reverse visible signs of aging in the hands without surgery.
Complementing Other Treatments – Radiesse can be combined with

How Does Radiesse Work?

Radiesse combines immediate volumizing effects with long-term collagen stimulation:

Immediate Lift – The gel and microspheres provide instant volume, filling wrinkles and lifting sagging areas.
Collagen Production – Over the following weeks, your body produces natural collagen around the injected areas, enhancing skin strength and elasticity.
Gradual Absorption – The calcium microspheres are gradually absorbed by the body, but the newly formed collagen maintains the improved structure.

This dual mechanism ensures Radiesse offers both immediate and long-lasting results.

Radiesse Procedure

Radiesse treatments at Eros Beauty And Wellness are straightforward and minimally invasive.

Consultation – Our experts evaluate your facial anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals to determine the best approach.
Preparation – The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort.
Injection – Radiesse is injected precisely into the targeted areas, typically taking 30–45 minutes depending on the treatment plan.

Post-Treatment Care – Mild swelling or bruising may occur but generally resolves within a few days. We provide instructions to optimize recovery and results.

Recovery and Results

Immediate Results – Most patients notice a visible lift and smoother skin immediately after treatment.
Collagen Development – Over 4–6 weeks, natural collagen production enhances results.
Longevity – Results typically last 12–24 months, depending on individual metabolism and the treatment area.

Minimal Downtime – Patients can usually resume normal activities immediately, though temporary redness or swelling is common.

Radiesse vs. Other Dermal Fillers

At Eros Beauty And Wellness, we offer a variety of dermal fillers, including Radiesse and liquid facelift solutions. Here’s how Radiesse compares to other popular fillers:

Radiesse
- Calcium-based filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel.
- Provides immediate volume restoration while stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.
- Ideal for deeper wrinkles, volume loss, and facial contouring.
- Long-lasting results, typically 12–24 months, making it a durable option for mid-face and lower-face rejuvenation.
- FDA-approved for use in the face and hands, allowing for both aesthetic and functional improvements.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers (Restylane, Juvederm)
- Made from hyaluronic acid, a sugar naturally found in the skin.
- Focused on smoothing fine lines and enhancing lips, under-eyes, and superficial areas.
- Provides natural-looking results with subtle improvements.
- Typically lasts 6–18 months, depending on the treatment area.
- Ideal for patients seeking gentle, targeted enhancements rather than major volume restoration.
Liquid Facelift
- A combination of multiple fillers to achieve full facial rejuvenation without surgery.
- Targets several areas at once, including cheeks, jawline, chin, and nasolabial folds.
- Can incorporate both Radiesse and hyaluronic acid fillers to balance volume restoration and fine line smoothing.

Radiesse is often chosen for its ability to restore deeper volume and stimulate collagen, while hyaluronic acid fillers are favored for subtle, natural enhancements. Liquid facelift solutions provide a complete approach for those looking for overall facial rejuvenation.
