Atlanta Radiesse Treatment
Other Atlanta Procedures
Interested in Atlanta Radiesse treatments? Radiesse is one of the most popular of the “next generation” dermal fillers that have come on the market attempting to improve on the functionality and longevity of Botox. Radiesse takes an entirely different biological approach than either Juvederm or Restylane, two widely used competitors that rely on hyaluronic acid. Contact us today to schedule your Atlanta Radiesse appointment.
Radiesse uses calcium hydroxyapatite, an organic material that can be found in bones and tooth enamel, which is suspended in a water based gel. When the gel degrades, the material left behind generates the creation of new collagen in the area where the injection was applied - and provides an effective natural filler as well. Radiesse achieved specific FDA approval in 2006 for the treatment of nasolabial folds, the deep lines that develop between the corners of the mouth and the bottom of the nose. It has also been approved for treatment of lipoatrophy, the loss of facial fat in patients with HIV.
The loss of fat and collagen in the face is the cause of most of the wrinkles and sagging in the face as we age. Dr. Howard believes that Radiesse is an effective dental filler with long lasting results; while those results vary from patient to patient they certainly extend well beyond the six months of facial rejuvenation that Botox achieves. Radiesse matches up well with the new fillers that claim extended results.
A Long Lasting Filler for Significant Facial Improvements
This particular filler is relatively firm compared to others on the market; Dr. Howard uses it selectively depending on the patient’s goals. While it may not be the best choice under the eyes or with lips, Radiesse can bring impressive improvements in deeply etched features of aging as nasolabial folds because of its unique biological interaction with the body.

Radiesse can also be used to sculpt cheekbones, nasal areas and the chin. It works effectively in facial areas where the only solution in the past has been implants. The filler goes through two stages; during the first few weeks it is simply a replacement for missing fat tissue in an aging face. Then as the gel dissipates the calcium hydroxyapatite generates new collagen that replaces the gel and provides a long term replacement extending the rejuvenation results well beyond a year’s time.
