Radiesse®
Radiesse® in Vancouver, BC
Radiesse® is an injectable treatment designed to provide structural support and improve skin firmness. It contains calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that offer immediate lift while also stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production over time.
Concerns
Volume Loss
Fine Line & Wrinkles
Treatment Time
30–45 minutes
Downtime
Mild swelling or bruising for 2–3 days; gradual improvement over time.
How It Works
Radiesse® provides instant volume upon injection while also stimulating collagen production over time. As the gel carrier is gradually absorbed, newly formed collagen helps maintain improved firmness, structure, and skin quality.
Consultation & Planning
A personalized consultation is required to assess candidacy and create a customized Radiesse® treatment plan. Many patients benefit from 1–2 treatments, depending on the areas treated and desired level of correction.

What is Radiesse® typically used for?
Radiesse® is commonly used for structural support in areas such as the jawline, chin, and lower face, and in some cases for hand rejuvenation. It provides initial volume and may stimulate collagen over time.
What is Radiesse®, and how is it different from other dermal fillers?
Radiesse® is a biostimulatory injectable composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse® is used primarily to provide structural support and stimulate collagen production over time rather than solely for immediate volume correction.
Does Radiesse® provide immediate results?
Radiesse® may provide some initial contouring from the gel carrier, but its primary benefit is gradual collagen stimulation. Changes develop progressively over time rather than instantly.
How does Radiesse® stimulate collagen?
The CaHA microspheres act as a scaffold within the tissue. Over time, the body produces collagen around these particles as part of its natural response, which may contribute to longer-term structural support.
Is Radiesse® considered permanent?
No. Radiesse® is not permanent. The gel carrier is absorbed first, followed by gradual breakdown of the CaHA particles. Collagen stimulation effects may persist longer, but maintenance treatments may be required.
How long do results typically last?
Longevity varies depending on treatment area, metabolism, and technique. Effects may last longer than some traditional fillers due to collagen stimulation, but results are not permanent.
