How it Works
Radiesse® dermal filler is made of unique, patented, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel carrier. When injected into the skin, these microspheres initially perform as a filler - they immediately provide facial volume for a soft, natural look. The transformation is noticeable right away. Over time, your body will gradually absorb the gel carrier, but the very tiny, smooth microspheres remain.

Upon injection, RADIESSE dermal filler immediately adds volume to facial features. |
 |
Macrophages continue to dissolve the gel carrier. Fibroblasts form new collagen. |
 |
New resident tissue (collagen) surrounds the CaHA microspheres. |
 |
The CaHA microspheres degrade and are phagocytized and metabolized by macrophages. |
 |
Even the small fragments of CaHA are decomposed at the implant site, without evidence of migration. |
