Radiesse
Radiesse is a calcium-based injectable filler. Calcium hydroxylapatite is biodegradable and is safely absorbed by the body over time. This filler can be used in many of the same areas of the face as HA fillers to correct age-related volume loss, enhance specific areas, and reduce facial wrinkles. Its unique characteristics also make it a go-to product for rejuvenation of the back of the hands, where volume loss is very apparent as part of the aging process for many people. It’s also ideal for Non-Surgical Radiesse Butt Lift.
Radiesse works by helping to replenish the protein collagen, a substance that occurs naturally in the human body and is slowly depleted over time. Collagen is responsible for the skin’s youthful glow and vitality, thus working with Radiesse is a way to return aesthetically to the suppleness and resilience of earlier years.
Suddenly Slimmer Med Spa doctors and nurses will provide you with their recommendation of which type of filler would be best for your particular anatomy and circumstances. Suddenly Slimmer Med Spa in Phoenix has over 30 years of experience in the medical aesthetics field. They are very experienced in using Radiesse for facial, hand, neck rejuvenation, and butt lift.

How can I prepare for a Radiesse treatment?
No allergy testing is needed. Before having any Radiesse injections, patients should avoid using aspirin products, Vitamin E supplements, and other medications that can thin the blood and may increase bruising.
DURING TREATMENT
Before the procedure, areas of the face or hands are marked with a surgical pen to specify just the right placement of the needle. A topical anesthetic is then applied to ensure your total comfort and peace of mind. Next, the doctor or nurse will use an ultra-thin needle to inject Radiesse into the target areas. The process is minimally uncomfortable, and you can enjoy videos or music while Suddenly Slimmer’s licensed medical professionals employ a highly detailed and precise injection strategy to produce stunning outcomes.
RECUPERATION
While discomfort is not a major issue with Radiesse, there are some occasional side effects to watch for, such as red, swollen, or numb skin after the injection. These symptoms resolve naturally within a day and are no cause for alarm. We recommend a few ibuprofen and some ice to counter these reactions.
It’s important to protect your face and hands from the sun, so wearing appropriate sunscreen is advised. Makeup can usually be applied after 2 hours. Results from Radiesse are known to last up to one year, and sometimes even longer.
