Losing definition in your cheeks or jawline? Noticing deeper smile lines or a general deflation in facial volume? As we age, collagen production slows and facial structure begins to shift—leaving behind sagging, folds, and hollowness that can make us look more tired or aged than we feel. While many fillers offer temporary volume, Radiesse® does more: it restores structure and stimulates your skin’s own collagen for results that last and evolve naturally over time.
Radiesse® is an injectable dermal filler that not only provides immediate volume and contour, but also acts as a biostimulator, encouraging your skin to rebuild its own collagen. It’s ideal for areas that need structure and lift, such as the jawline, cheeks, chin, and deep nasolabial folds. Radiesse delivers both instant definition and long-term improvement, helping restore a firm, youthful facial contour without surgery.
Technology
Radiesse® is made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel. The gel provides immediate lift, while the microspheres work over time to trigger natural collagen production. At Victoria Park Medispa, our expert injectors use Radiesse® for facial contouring and also for skin rejuvenation in areas like the neck and hands (when hyperdiluted). The result? A smoother, firmer, more sculpted look that’s still entirely your own.
Radiesse®
Before your Radiesse® appointment, your provider will conduct a facial assessment to understand your volume loss, skin laxity, and treatment goals. You’ll discuss the ideal injection points, such as the jawline, cheeks, chin, or hands, and build a personalized plan. To reduce the risk of bruising, it’s recommended to avoid blood thinners, alcohol, and anti-inflammatory medications for 3–5 days leading up to your session.
Radiesse® treatments typically take 30–45 minutes. After cleansing the treatment area, a topical numbing cream or local anesthetic is applied for comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, your provider will carefully inject Radiesse beneath the skin, sculpting areas that need volume or definition. You’ll notice immediate improvement in contour and lift, with continued collagen stimulation over time.
You may experience mild swelling, tenderness, or redness at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few days. Some bruising is possible, but most clients return to normal activities right after treatment. As the calcium-based microspheres begin stimulating collagen, results continue to improve over several weeks. Final outcomes can last 12–18 months, depending on the area treated and your skin’s response.

Lumps or nodules are rare but possible with any injectable filler. Choosing a skilled provider who uses proper technique greatly reduces this risk. Any mild irregularities often resolve naturally over time.
