What is Radiesse?

Are you looking for a dermal filler to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in the lower face? Do you want to restore volume to your lips and around the mouth? Radiesse is an injectable filler that can stimulate collagen production and improve your skin’s fullness and elasticity. Anderson Sobel Cosmetic Surgery offers this volumizing wrinkle reducer that provides contour and structure to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. Our Seattle Radiesse patients notice positive results immediately, and the effects are clinically proven to last one year or more.

Synthesized to match the exact chemical structure of calcium particles found in your bones, Radiesse is FDA-approved to restore your natural beauty. Radiesse may be used alone, in conjunction with wrinkle relaxers like BOTOX or other fillers, or to enhance the results of cosmetic procedures.

What to Expect from Your Radiesse Treatment

Produced in gel form, Radiesse is injected below the surface of the skin into areas that you want to improve. As we age, we lose fat in our faces and elsewhere, prompting your skin to appear loose and wrinkled. By injecting this gel into the problem areas, however, you stretch the skin back to the tautness of your youth. Think of a large comforter on your bed. When you pull it taut, the wrinkles smooth out.

Radiesse injections are much less invasive than traditional plastic surgery. Each injection can last between seven to 18 months, depending on what areas you want to improve.

Hand Rejuvenation with Radiesse

Although we often ignore our hands, they can be a subtle indicator of age. Dr. Sobel offers hand rejuvenation using Radiesse to smooth fine lines, fill shallowness that highlights tendons, and create an overall more youthful look.

Radiesse for Facial Enhancement

Because of the powerful, long-lasting nature of Radiesse, it can also be used to augment or enhance certain features on your face. Aside from improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, Radiesse has been shown to:

  • Improve aesthetic flaws in the nose
  • Augment and shape the cheeks
  • Contour the chin, and define the jaw line.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty

Dr. Sobel offers “nonsurgical rhinoplasty,” a less invasive alternative to traditional nose surgery. With Radiesse, Dr. Sobel can improve the nose by building up the bridge, disguising a bump, shaping the tip, or correcting other defects.

“Dr Sobel also did Botox and filler injections for me. As a trained, certified, and experienced injectable RN I am extremely picky about who I allow to do this. Dr Sobel is the best I have ever seen.”

Chin enhancement with filler

The chin can also be improved through strategically placed injections of Radiesse. After evaluating your natural anatomy and listening to your concerns and desired outcome, Dr. Sobel will design an injection plan that will create a smoother, firmer jawline.
