Radiesse Injection Specialist Serving San Antonio, Seguin, TX

While Radiesse does not tighten skin in the traditional sense like a surgical facelift it does provide similar aesthetic effects. Its formulation rejuvenates the face by reducing lines and wrinkles caused by volume loss. Radiesse involves subcutaneous injections, which increase local volume and generates a lifting effect that provides the appearance of tighter and rejuvenated skin.

This reduces the appearance of sagging areas and improves overall skin quality, giving the appearance of skin tightening. Another key feature of Radiesse is its ability to stimulate collagen production.

Collagen is a structural protein that is responsible for skin elasticity and volume; it occurs naturally in the body but declines with age leading to loose and sagging skin.

So, although Radiesse does not traditionally tighten the skin, its volumizing and collagen-inducing nature can make the skin appear more lifted and firmer.

Radiesse is primarily used for facial rejuvenation. It targets areas with volume loss and diminishes lines and wrinkles. Immediate visible plumping occurs once the product is injected. Over time, as the gel structure is absorbed, there is an increase in natural collagen, making the skin tighter and more elastic.

Radiesse is FDA-approved for the treatment of facial wrinkles or folds, jawline contouring, and hand augmentation for volume loss correction. Providers also use it to firm various parts of the face and body, smoothing out or removing defects such as rashes on the hips or loose skin on the neck caused by aging or other factors.

This procedure effectively restores a youthful glow by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production. Radiesse can address issues such as wrinkles, skin laxity, cellulite, and more. Radiesse’s various potential applications make it a valuable and versatile option for individuals looking to combat the signs of aging and rejuvenate their appearance.

The results of Radiesse injections tend to be long-lasting however, individual factors will dictate their exact duration. Generally, one can expect the results to last about twelve to eighteen months. Factors influencing the duration of these effects include diet, lifestyle choices, and the severity of the targeted issues. If the aesthetic concerns are more severe, an additional session might be needed sooner. Age, overall health, and adherence to aftercare instructions provided by the specialists at LCS MedSpa also impact the longevity of the results.

Often, patients will need to return about seven months after their initial injection for a touch-up to maintain their desired appearance. Good hydration and protection against UV rays from the sun are recommended to extend the life of the fillers.

The number of Radiesse treatments required varies based on individual needs and aesthetic goals. Achieving the desired outcomes may necessitate one to three treatment sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart initially.

Following this initial series, maintenance sessions are recommended every 6-18 months, depending on factors like genetics, skin care regimen, and the use of other treatments such as radiofrequency sessions. The frequency of repeated sessions depends on each patient’s unique skin condition and response to the treatment, as well as personal preferences.

Radiesse injections involve a small needle and typically take 15-30 minutes; visible results often appear within a week of the procedure. It is minimally invasive, allowing the majority of patients to return to normal activities immediately, with only some slight bruising or swelling lasting up to ten days in rare cases.

The pain is typically minimal and can be managed with over-the-counter mild pain medication, which is widely available. This treatment plan and the minimally invasive nature of the procedure make Radiesse a practical and effective choice for those looking to restore and maintain youthfulness without significant downtime.
