Science-Backed Beauty

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a unique injectable treatment composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse works as both an immediate volumizer and a long-term collagen stimulator. Once injected, the CaHA microspheres create a scaffold that supports natural collagen regrowth, gradually improving skin quality and volume over several months.

As a biostimulator, Radiesse encourages your body to produce healthy new collagen and elastin, resulting in tighter, smoother, and more voluminous skin. The results are gradual, natural-looking, and long-lasting — often persisting for 12 to 18 months or longer in ideal candidates.

Lasting Results from Within

What can Radiesse do?

Radiesse provides your body with the stimulation it needs to restore volume and rejuvenate your skin naturally.

Radiesse is commonly used for global facial volume restoration, jawline definition, cheek augmentation, temple volumization, and hand rejuvenation. Because it stimulates natural collagen production, results develop gradually and look entirely natural. Radiesse is also used for body treatments including the chest, abdomen, arms, and knees to improve skin texture, laxity, and subtle volume. Radiesse is an ideal choice for patients who want to address early to moderate signs of aging without looking overdone.

Your Personalized Plan

Radiesse Consultation

At Elixir Aesthetics, every patient receives a personalized treatment plan tailored to their unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. During your Radiesse consultation, our expert providers will assess your skin quality, facial structure, and volume loss to determine whether Radiesse is the ideal biostimulator for you. We will walk you through the treatment process, set realistic expectations, and design a customized plan to achieve your most radiant results.

Comfortable and Precise

Radiesse Preparation and Procedure

Please arrive at your Radiesse treatment without makeup on the area to be treated. A topical numbing ointment may be applied prior to treatment to maximize your comfort. After the treatment area is thoroughly cleansed, your provider will precisely administer Radiesse using a thin needle or micro-cannula. The product is then gently massaged to ensure smooth, even distribution. Most Radiesse treatments are completed in 30 to 60 minutes, and patients can typically return to their normal activities the same day.

Natural Results That Grow

Radiesse Recovery, Results, and Aftercare

Your provider will provide thorough post-treatment care instructions following your Radiesse session. Immediately after treatment, you will notice instant volumization of the treated area. Over the next several weeks, as your body produces new collagen in response to the CaHA microspheres, results will continue to develop and improve.

Most patients can resume social activities the same day. Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours post-treatment. You may experience temporary swelling, redness, or mild bruising at injection sites, which typically resolves within a few days. Makeup can be applied within a few hours of treatment. For optimal results and longevity, follow your provider's aftercare recommendations and attend scheduled follow-up appointments.

Maintaining your Radiesse results

Radiesse results are both immediate and progressive. While you'll see an instant improvement in volume right after treatment, the biostimulating effects continue to build as collagen production ramps up over four to twelve weeks. Results typically last 12 to 18 months or longer, depending on the treatment area, individual metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Periodic maintenance sessions are recommended to sustain and enhance your results as the natural aging process continues.

RadiesseFrequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for Radiesse?

Radiesse is ideal for adults who are experiencing mild to moderate volume loss, skin laxity, or early signs of aging and who prefer a gradual, natural-looking improvement. Good candidates are generally in good health, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have realistic expectations about the timeline and scope of results. Our providers will assess your individual needs during your consultation to confirm if Radiesse is the right treatment for you.

How is Radiesse different from a traditional dermal filler?

Radiesse is unique because it acts as both an immediate volumizer and a long-term biostimulator. Traditional hyaluronic acid fillers add volume through the filler itself and are gradually absorbed by the body, while Radiesse stimulates your body to produce new collagen, leading to improvements that can last significantly longer. The results with Radiesse build over time and look increasingly natural as collagen production increases.

How long do Radiesse results last?

Radiesse results typically last 12 to 18 months, though results may vary based on the treatment area, the amount of product used, individual metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Patients who follow a regular maintenance schedule often enjoy extended results as collagen continues to be stimulated with each session. Your provider will help you design a treatment schedule for optimal, long-lasting outcomes.

Is Radiesse safe?

Radiesse is FDA-approved and has a well-established safety profile. Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), the primary ingredient in Radiesse, is a biocompatible substance naturally found in the body. When administered by a trained medical provider, Radiesse is a safe and effective treatment. As with any injectable procedure, there are potential risks including temporary swelling, bruising, redness, and in rare cases, lumps or nodules. Your provider will discuss all risks during your consultation.

How much does Radiesse cost in Tampa?

The cost of Radiesse treatments at Elixir Aesthetics varies depending on the number of syringes needed and the area(s) being treated. A personalized quote will be provided during your consultation based on your individual treatment plan. We encourage you to schedule a consultation to receive an accurate assessment and investment estimate tailored to your goals.

Can Radiesse be combined with other treatments?

Yes! Radiesse pairs beautifully with neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport/Daxxify), Sculptra, laser treatments like Morpheus8, and skin health treatments for comprehensive facial and body rejuvenation. Our providers at Elixir Aesthetics specialize in combining treatments for synergistic results. During your consultation, we will create a customized treatment plan that addresses all of your aesthetic goals holistically.
