How it Works
Collagen is what gives volume, flexibility and strength to healthy, young skin. As a part of the ageing process, your own natural collagen breaks down, diminishing facial volume and elasticity. This loss of elasticity and volume results in wrinkles, facial lines and skin laxity – all of which rob your skin of its youthful, fresh appearance.
Replenish Volume. Restore Collagen. Refresh You.
Ideal wrinkle reduction is achieved by replenishing your skin's lost volume. Upon injection, RADIESSE® volumising filler immediately provides the volume and lift needed to diminish the signs of ageing because of the calcium-based microspheres and gel that comprise the product. But what's unique about RADIESSE® volumising filler is that it acts as a scaffold under the skin, providing structure and stimulating your own natural collagen to grow.1 This process continues for several months, which extends the initial effect of RADIESSE® volumising filler. Best of all, the natural results are clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients, which is why more and more cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists, and other medical professionals are choosing RADIESSE® volumising filler to achieve long-lasting facial rejuvenation.2
