Radiesse Treatments for Portland and Beaverton Patients

Radiesse is an injectable biostimulator that enhances facial volume and stimulates collagen production for natural and long-lasting rejuvenation. Unlike traditional fillers, Radiesse restores lost volume and works beneath the skin’s surface to strengthen the skin and improve overall texture. This treatment at Key Laser Institute provides immediate contouring while promoting firmer and more youthful-looking skin over time.

Areas of Concern

Ideal candidates for Radiesse include individuals who:

  • Want to restore lost facial or hand volume
  • Are looking for a non-surgical solution to wrinkles and skin laxity
  • Seek natural and long-lasting collagen stimulation
  • Do not have severe allergies or sensitivities to the product’s ingredients
  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations for their results

What is Radiesse

Radiesse is an FDA-approved biostimulatory filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres. This dual-action formula provides immediate volume enhancement while encouraging the body’s natural collagen production. As the gel carrier is absorbed, the CaHA microspheres integrate into the skin, stimulating new collagen and elastin fibers. Over time, this process strengthens the skin’s structure, delivering firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin that lasts up to a year.

Benefits of Radiesse

Radiesse offers immediate and long-term benefits for patients seeking facial and body rejuvenation. After injection, the treatment restores lost volume and contours areas affected by aging, delivering instant enhancement. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which gradually break down, Radiesse promotes the natural production of collagen, extending the longevity of results and improving skin elasticity over time. The treatment can be used to rejuvenate the face, hands, and body with minimal downtime. Since Radiesse contains lidocaine, the injections are comfortable, making it ideal for those looking for a non-surgical approach to skin tightening and volume restoration.

Candidates of Radiesse

Ideal candidates for Radiesse are individuals seeking a non-surgical solution to volume loss, wrinkles, and skin laxity. This collagen-stimulating treatment can enhance facial contours, improve jawline definition, or restore fullness in the hands. Patients should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations for their results, and not have allergies to any ingredients in Radiesse. A consultation with a qualified provider is essential to determine if Radiesse is the right choice for you based on your aesthetic goals and skin condition.

Before Your Hormone Replacement Therapy

A consultation is the first step in preparing for Radiesse. During this visit, one of our team members at Key Laser Institute will assess your skin, discuss your concerns, and create a customized treatment plan. To minimize the risk of bruising, it is recommended that you avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and certain supplements in the days leading up to treatment. Your provider may also advise you on specific skincare precautions to ensure optimal results.

During Your Hormone Replacement Therapy

The procedure typically takes 30 to 45 minutes and is performed in a comfortable setting. After cleansing the treatment area, a topical numbing cream may be applied for additional comfort, though Radiesse contains lidocaine to minimize discomfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, we will carefully inject Radiesse into targeted areas, gently massaging the product to ensure even distribution. The process is quick and requires no downtime, allowing patients to return to most daily activities immediately after treatment.

After Your Hormone Replacement Therapy

Following treatment, mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur at the injection sites, but these side effects typically subside within a few days. Most patients notice an immediate improvement in volume and contour, while collagen production continues to enhance skin quality over the following weeks. To promote optimal healing, it is recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol for at least 24 hours.

FAQs About Radiesse Treatments in Portland

How does Radiesse work?

Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. When injected, it immediately provides volume and structure to the treated area, and continues to stimulate natural collagen production over time.

What is the best age for Radiesse?

Most patients seeking Radiesse are in their 30s to 60s, looking to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, or enhance facial contours. Younger patients may use Radiesse for facial balancing.

Do Radiesse results continually improve?

Over the next several months your skin produces more collagen, leading to longer-lasting firmness and elasticity. The full results typically develop over two to three months and can last up to a year or more, depending on individual factors.

Do I need more than one treatment session?

The number of Radiesse treatments needed varies based on individual goals, the treatment area, and the amount of volume loss. A consultation will help determine if additional sessions are necessary based on your skin’s response and aesthetic goals.

Can I prolong my results?

Keeping your skin hydrated, using medical-grade skincare, and protecting it from sun exposure can help maintain collagen production and prevent premature aging. Additionally, combining Radiesse with other treatments may further enhance and prolong its rejuvenating effects.

What areas can be treated with Radiesse?

Radiesse is commonly used to restore facial fat loss and volume in the cheeks, jawline, and hands and smooth severe facial wrinkles, sagging skin, and deep lines like nasolabial folds.

How long do Radiesse results last?

Radiesse injections provide immediate and long-lasting results, with most patients enjoying the effects of a more youthful appearance for 12 to 18 months. Since it stimulates collagen and elastin production, the benefits may last longer as your body maintains the new tissue.

Is Radiesse safe?

Radiesse is FDA-approved and has been extensively studied for safety and efficacy. Side effects are typically mild and temporary, such as swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site.

What makes Radiesse different from other dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers primarily add volume, while Radiesse is a biostimulatory filler that enhances skin quality by triggering collagen production. This makes it an ideal facial filler for long-term structural support and skin rejuvenation.

Does Radiesse require any downtime?

Radiesse is a minimally invasive cosmetic injectable treatment with little to no downtime, allowing most patients to resume normal activities immediately.
