There are a variety of dermal fillers available to treat wrinkles and volume loss in your face. However, not all of them work with your body’s natural processes to improve the quality of your skin.
As you age, collagen levels and quality decline, leading to loss of firmness, sagging, and more noticeable lines and wrinkles. RADIESSE® is designed to not only add instant volume but also to stimulate your body’s collagen production for a natural-looking, lasting lift. At PREMIERE Center for Cosmetic Surgery, we offer RADIESSE® to our patients who want to restore youthful volume, smooth wrinkles, and rejuvenate their skin’s overall appearance.
What Is RADIESSE®?
RADIESSE® is an injectable filler made up of collagen-inducing calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) suspended in a gel carrier. The gel works to immediately fill lines and wrinkles and plump up areas that have lost volume while the microparticles activate your body’s natural collagen production. The microparticles both stimulate the regeneration of fresh collagen and serve as scaffolding to support new collagen.

What Are the Benefits of RADIESSE®?
Because RADIESSE® consists of both collagen-boosting ingredients and gel filler, it offers immediately evident results that continue to improve over time. Benefits of RADIESSE® include:
- Collagen stimulation
- Treatment of deep folds and wrinkles
- Natural-looking results
Because RADIESSE® encourages the natural production of collagen, it offers visible results for up to two years—outlasting most other injectable fillers.
What Can RADIESSE® Treat?
RADIESSE® is a safe and effective way to address several age-related concerns. It has been FDA approved for nearly 20 years to treat moderate to severe lines, wrinkles, and volume loss in the mid and lower face, including:
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Smile lines
- Chin wrinkles
- Folds around the jowls
RADIESSE® can also sharpen and define your jawline, add volume to your cheeks, and fill in scars. RADIESSE® can also be used to address concerns about volume loss in the back of your hands.
Is RADIESSE® Right For Me?
Ideal candidates for RADIESSE® are nonsmokers over 18 who want to address volume loss and other signs of aging in their face and hands. The best way to determine if RADIESSE® is right for you is to talk to one of the experts at PREMIERE Center for Cosmetic Surgery.
Our philosophy is to create the most natural results and never do more than is necessary.

What Can I Expect From My RADIESSE® Treatment?
On the day of your RADIESSE® treatment, you should come into PREMIERE Center for Cosmetic Surgery with a clean face, free of skincare products. While RADIESSE® treatments are virtually painless, we will apply a topical numbing cream to your face to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
After the numbing cream has taken effect, RADIESSE® is injected into the areas of your face that you wish to treat using a series of precise injections. After your RADIESSE® treatment is complete, you can immediately return to your daily activities. RADIESSE® requires no downtime for recovery, though you may want to avoid strenuous activities for a few days.
When Will I See My RADIESSE® Results?
You will see immediate results after your RADIESSE® treatment, with more visible volume and improved facial texture within the first few days. Over the next few weeks and months, you will notice a continued increase in facial volume and a decrease in lines and wrinkles. The process of collagen regrowth may continue for up to a year as healthy new collagen replaces the gel filler.
Are There Any Risks Associated with RADIESSE®?
RADIESSE® is considered safe; however, as with any cosmetic treatment, some minor side effects may occur. Some people may experience mild swelling, bruising, itching, or redness at the injection sites. These are common and will quickly resolve on their own.
If side effects persist or you have concerns, please contact our office.
Will I Need More Than One RADIESSE® Treatment?
The number of RADIESSE® treatments you need will depend on what you wish to address. For optimal results, most people undergo two or three treatments spaced one to two months apart. To maintain your results, we recommend maintenance injections every 12–18 months.

The cost of RADIESSE® treatments depends on several factors, including:

When you come into PREMIERE Center for Cosmetic Surgery for your consultation, we will let you know how much your RADIESSE® treatment will cost.
