Radiesse is a dermal filler designed to smooth deeper facial wrinkles, restore lost volume, and support the skin’s natural collagen production. As collagen levels decline with age, folds and contour changes can become more pronounced, especially around the mouth and cheeks. Radiesse offers a non-surgical option for patients seeking immediate improvement with results that continue to evolve over time.
At Radiesse injections are performed under the care of Dr. Thomas Pane, a double board-certified plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. His advanced understanding of facial structure allows for precise placement that enhances contour while maintaining natural facial balance.
Understanding Radiesse Injectable Treatment
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite-based dermal filler used for soft tissue augmentation. In addition to providing immediate volume, it stimulates the body’s natural collagen production, which helps improve skin quality over time. This dual-action approach makes Radiesse especially effective for deeper folds and structural support.
Dr. Thomas Pane applies injection techniques informed by decades of cosmetic and reconstructive facial surgery experience. His double board certification supports careful product selection and placement based on anatomy rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Areas Commonly Treated With Radiesse
Radiesse is well suited for treating moderate to severe facial wrinkles and contour deficiencies. Common treatment areas include:
- Nasolabial folds: Smoothing deep creases between the nose and mouth.
- Cheeks: Restoring structure and midface volume.
- Jawline: Improving definition and contour.
- Chin: Enhancing balance and projection.
- Oral commissures: Softening downturned corners of the mouth.
Treating these areas can improve facial harmony and restore a more youthful appearance.
Radiesse Compared to Other Dermal Fillers
Radiesse differs from hyaluronic acid fillers in both composition and longevity. While many fillers focus on hydration and temporary volume, Radiesse provides structural support and collagen stimulation. This makes it a preferred option for patients with deeper folds or those seeking longer-lasting correction.
Dr. Pane evaluates facial anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals before recommending Radiesse or an alternative filler.
Recovery Timeline and Activity Expectations
Most patients experience minimal downtime following Radiesse treatment. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites may occur and typically resolves within a few days. Normal daily activities can usually be resumed immediately, while strenuous exercise may be briefly postponed.
Following aftercare guidelines helps ensure comfort and optimal results.
Longevity and Long-Term Results
Radiesse results are long lasting compared to many other dermal fillers. Immediate improvement is visible after treatment, with continued enhancement as collagen production increases. Results often last a year or longer depending on the treatment area and individual response.
Maintenance treatments may be recommended to preserve volume and contour over time.
Combining Radiesse With Other Cosmetic Procedures
Radiesse is frequently combined with other cosmetic treatments to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. While Radiesse restores volume and structure, neurotoxins such as Botox or Dysport can soften dynamic wrinkles. Combined treatment planning allows for balanced, natural-looking outcomes.
Dr. Pane considers overall facial proportions and long-term goals when developing combination treatment plans.
Safety Considerations and Side Effects
Radiesse has an established safety profile when administered by a qualified medical professional. Temporary swelling or bruising is the most common side effect. Rare complications can occur if fillers are improperly placed.
Dr. Pane’s surgical training and facial anatomy expertise help minimize risk and support safe outcomes.
