Radiesse
The effects of time, environmental exposure, gravity, and genetics all contribute to the appearance of our skin and its architecture. Dermal fillers have revolutionized the way we are able to correct aging via simple injections. These quick, very low downtime procedures can restore volume, soften lines and wrinkles, redrape tissues, and enhance well-being.
Radiesse has a unique place among dermal fillers as it is composed of calcium hydroxyapatite. This filler is extremely useful in providing structure, angulation, and promoting the development of collagen.
