Radiesse ®

Not just a typical filler. 

At Kessel Dermatology, servicing the Hamilton Square, Trenton, and Mercer County areas in New Jersey, we offer a number of dermal filler options , including Radiesse®.

Radiesse is made of Calcium Hydroxylapatite microspheres that provide an immediately smoothed look once injected but then continue to work by stimulating collagen and elastin production. This biostimulant effect helps tighten the skin and improve its long term appearance. Eventually, they are absorbed by your body, leaving only natural collagen in place.

Also, unlike fillers, we may do a series of treatments to reach the desired result. This is because the desired result is the natural growth or your own collagen and elastin. Treatments are spaced 6 weeks apart.

Radiesse can help reduce the appearance of crepey skin in these areas:

• Neck
• Decollete
• Cheeks
• Arms
• Above the knee
• Thighs
• Abdomen

Radiesse also works synergistically to enhance the effects of Radio Frequency when coupled with device treatments like Morpheus8 and Evolve-X

Commonly asked questions.

Will There Be Downtime After Treatment?

After care instructions will be provided. In the majority of cases, minimal downtime is required after getting Radiesse injections. You may be asked to avoid alcohol and stay out of the sun for the first 24 to 48 hours, but you can resume most activities right away.  

In some cases there may be bruising or swelling. That should subside in a week or so. Makeup can be applied 24 hours later. 

Is Radiesse Filler Permanent?

There is no cosmetic treatment that is permanent. Even facelifts have a life expectancy. Patients can expect to return for maintenance treatments once a year.
