Questions about Radiesse Treatment for Men

Do you desire youthful and wrinkle-free skin? You can get rid of those creases and wrinkles on your face, especially around your mouth and nose, using Radiesse®. This treatment option is available for both men and women and is long-lasting, safe, and natural-looking. Radiesse® for men is an injectable serum made from calcium hydroxylapatite that works through tissue augmentation.
How Does Radiesse® Work?
Radiesse® primarily works as a dermal filler that increases volume beneath the skin and removes creases and wrinkles. The calcium hydroxylapatite, in the form of microspheres, is suspended in a cellulose gel that is biocompatible. These microspheres form a scaffold after three months that stimulates and supports the development of collagen which creates a fuller, youthful, and more natural look.
Where Is Radiesse® Used on the Face?
This is a non-surgical and effective treatment for wrinkles and creases which guarantees positive results. The procedure can be performed on different parts of your body and for conditions such as:
• Cheeks
• Depressed scars
• Chin
• Deep wrinkles
• Acne scars
• Nasolabial folds
What Should You Expect?
Radiesse® injections usually take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes. The duration is dependent on the number of syringes chosen for a procedure. The procedure is easy and comfortable, and the results are almost immediate.
The procedure begins with the doctor making marks on the injection sites using an eyeliner pencil. The dermal filler is then injected using a cannula with a smooth tip or a needle that is ultra-fine. After the procedure, the doctor massages the injection sites to ensure that there are no bumps or irregularities. In some critical areas such as underneath the eyes and cheeks, local anesthesia may be used to prevent bruising.
What Should You Do before and after Treatment?
You should avoid blood thinners before and after the procedure to prevent bruising. Other supplements and medications to avoid include fish oil, Vitamin E, ibuprofen, and aspirin for one week before the Radiesse® treatment and for 48 hours after the treatment. It is advisable to ice the injection sites for between 6 and 10 hours after the procedure. We can give you more detailed instructions at your consultation with us.
