Radiesse is a calcium-based biostimulator from Merz, the German company also known for Ultherapy, Xeomin, and Belotero.
It received FDA approval in 2006 for its collagen-stimulating effects and has since been safely used in over 80 countries worldwide.
Radiesse has been gaining attention for its skin repair treatment, which diluted Radiesse is injected into the skin to improve overall skin quality.
Its main ingredient, calcium hydroxylapatite, activates fibroblast activity and promotes the production of new collagen.
This helps maintain a healthy skin structure and stimulates elastin regeneration, leading to firmer, healthier, and more resilient skin overall.

Treatment Q&A
Q.What is the Radiesse treatment, and what are its primary components?
Radiesse is a next-generation collagen booster composed primarily of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA). Unlike conventional fillers that simply provide immediate volume, the injected CaHA particles stimulate the natural production of new collagen and elastin over time, providing long-term benefits for skin regeneration and elasticity.
Q.How does Radiesse differ from standard hyaluronic acid fillers or other collagen injections?
The main distinction lies in the mechanism of action; while hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers temporarily fill areas with "moisture-based volume," Radiesse acts as a collagen booster where the CaHA component directly induces the body's own collagen production. Consequently, Radiesse offers immediate structural support followed by lasting volume and skin firmness that remains even after the initial gel carrier is absorbed by the body.
Q.What are the primary effects of Radiesse, and which areas are most suitable for treatment?
The primary effects of Radiesse include creating natural volume in sunken areas such as the cheeks or nasolabial folds, alongside overall improvement in skin elasticity and lifting. Beyond facial applications, this treatment is highly effective for various areas requiring rejuvenation, including neck wrinkles, the backs of the hands, and the décolletage.
Q.When do the effects of Radiesse appear, and how long do they typically last?
Patients can notice an immediate volumizing effect right after the injection due to the gel carrier used in the formula. The full results of collagen regeneration begin to manifest between 4-6 weeks post-treatment, and when the recommended number of sessions is completed, the maintenance period for Radiesse is notably long, typically lasting between 1-2 years.
Q.Is it safe to combine Radiesse with other laser lifting or skin booster treatments?
Radiesse establishes a foundation for collagen regeneration within the skin, making it an excellent candidate for synergistic combinations with other procedures. Specifically, when paired with laser lifting treatments such as Ultherapy or Thermage, the skin tightening and elasticity benefits can be maximized. However, it is generally advised to wait approximately 2-3 weeks before undergoing radiofrequency or ultrasound lifting to ensure the Radiesse components have stabilized for the best possible results.
Precautions
Self-care is as significant as skincare for treatment effects.
Please read through cautions closely and follow them.
It is recommended to avoid heavy drinking, sauna/jjimjilbang visits, hot baths, and intense exercise for 3-7 days after the procedure.
After the procedure, bruising, swelling, mild pain, and redness may occur, but these are temporary and will subside within a few days.
To prevent dryness, please apply moisturizers and regenerating cream frequently, and make sure to use sunscreen whenever you go outside.
