Radiesse

Introduction

Introduction to Radiesse

Radiesse is known as a biostimulator. Rather than filling in lines, creases, and folds from the outside, as conventional fillers do, it works by increasing the body’s natural production of collagen, a key protein responsible for youthfulness, hydration, and radiance. When injected by our skilled providers at Moy MD in Los Angeles, CA, Radiesse can revitalize the face, hands, and glutes, leaving you more confident.

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a soft tissue filler gel containing very fine calcium hydroxyapatite crystals. These crystals are identical in composition to the mineral portion of bone and teeth, so your body recognizes them as natural. When injected into the skin, Radiesse provides immediate wrinkle correction and, over time, stimulates your body to produce more collagen.

Who Are the Best Candidates For Radiesse?

If you are in the Los Angeles area and frustrated by volume loss, hollow-looking contours, and recurring signs of aging such as wrinkles, creases, and folds, you may be an excellent candidate for Radiesse. The best way to tell for sure is to book your introductory consultation with Dr. Moy and her team in California today. In general, the treatment is suitable for healthy men and women with realistic expectations for their results and who are willing to follow Dr. Moy’s aftercare instructions.

What’s the First Step?

To begin your unique cosmetic journey, you will first sit down with Dr. Moy for a detailed consultation process. You will undergo a thorough medical review and skin analysis to ensure that Radiesse is the right choice for your goals. Dr. Moy will answer all of your questions with care and precision and ensure you have a clear understanding of the risks and downtime associated with your injections.

Once you are approved and decide to move forward, we can schedule your session and create a customized treatment plan that addresses the root causes of your concerns. Prior to your visit, please avoid aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications for at least seven days. In the 24 hours before your appointment, avoid drinking alcohol, as this may increase your bruising and swelling risks.

What to Expect on the Day of a Radiesse Treatment

On the day of your session, you will be warmly welcomed into our state-of-the-art facility in Los Angeles and placed in a well-equipped, climate-controlled treatment suite. Sessions are brief and can be completed over your lunch break, allowing you to resume your normal schedule immediately. To maximize your comfort, we will numb your skin with a topical anesthetic prior to administering your injections. Once you are relaxed, Radiesse is administered using a fine-gauge needle to revitalize your complexion and leave you looking and feeling your best.
