Radiesse® Hyperdilute in Newnan, GA

What Is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a dermal filler that provides structure and support beneath the skin through calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. These microspheres add volume and stimulate the production of collagen. It is typically used to address areas where skin laxity or volume loss occurs with results that can last a year or more.

What Is Hyperdilute Radiesse?

Hyperdilute Radiesse is a modified version of the standard Radiesse filler, created by mixing the product with a saline solution or lidocaine to reduce its potency. This alteration allows it to spread more evenly across the treated area and is ideal for improving skin quality rather than just adding volume.

How Does Hyperdilute Radiesse Work?

Hyperdilute Radiesse is administered through a series of fine injections placed strategically in the targeted areas. The diluted formula spreads easily under the skin for uniform distribution. Once injected, the calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres in Radiesse act as a scaffold beneath the skin. This framework provides a supportive structure that encourages fibroblasts—special cells in the skin—to begin producing new collagen and elastin.

What Does Hyperdilute Radiesse Address?

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Collagen and elastin are both important for smooth and elastic skin. By improving the skin’s internal structure, hyperdilute Radiesse helps restore this smooth texture. This treatment enhances the skin’s ability to retain its natural shape, reducing the prominence of fine lines and shallow wrinkles.

Skin Laxity

Hyperdilute Radiesse improves the skin’s elasticity by fortifying its internal framework. This reinforcement creates a firmer, more lifted look in areas prone to sagging like the neck or upper arms.

Volume Loss

When volume diminishes, the skin can appear hollow or less defined. Hyperdilute Radiesse supports subtle, natural-looking enhancements by restoring structure and volume under the skin. This is helpful in areas where volume loss is most noticeable like the cheeks.

Overall Skin Health and Hydration

Hyperdilute Radiesse enhances the skin’s ability to retain moisture and helps it feel softer and more supple. This boost in hydration also improves skin texture and gives it a healthier appearance.

Treatment Areas for Hyperdilute Radiesse

• Face and Neck: Hyperdilute Radiesse can help improve skin texture and firmness in areas where the skin is more delicate, such as the face and neck. It can be ideal for the lower face such as nasolabial folds, and the jawline, or other areas like the cheeks.  
• Décolletage: The thin skin of the décolletage is prone to creasing and sun damage. Hyperdilute Radiesse provides subtle support to this area to restore a healthier and more uniform look.
• Buttocks and Thighs: When used on the buttocks and thighs, hyperdilute Radiesse can enhance skin tone and firmness and address issues like crepiness. It offers a gradual improvement in the overall quality of the skin.
• Arms and Knees: In areas such as the arms and knees, where skin tends to sag or wrinkle, hyperdilute Radiesse works to strengthen and tighten the skin.
• Abdomen: Loose skin on the abdomen, often caused by aging or weight fluctuations, can benefit from hyperdilute Radiesse. This treatment helps improve the skin’s elasticity and gives it a smoother and more refined appearance.

Choosing Hyperdilute Radiesse

Non-Surgical Treatments for Skin Laxity and Volume Loss

Treatment of skin laxity and subtle volume loss doesn’t always involve surgical intervention. Treatments like Radiesse Hyperdilute offer a gentle way to improve firmness and enhance contours without the downtime or recovery that comes with surgery. It is a practical option for patients looking for gradual and natural-looking improvements.

Improved Skin Health and Texture

We are always searching for treatments that go beyond aesthetics and provide benefits for the health of our patients’ skin, too. With Radiesse hyperdilute, we can improve the integrity of your skin beneath the surface and help reverse some of the effects that aging can have on the skin. 

Lasting Results

Although changes are gradual, the improvements from hyperdilute Radiesse can last for months. The treatment promotes natural processes within the skin, so the benefits continue to develop over time. This longevity reduces the frequency of additional treatments and time spent in the office. 

Gentle and Customizable

This treatment adapts to each patient, allowing for adjustments based on the area being addressed and the desired outcome. We take time during each consultation to find out what you are looking for from your treatment. Then we talk about ways that we can adjust our plan to fit you. These injections are also gentle and relatively painless.

Compatible With Other Treatments

Combining hyperdilute Radiesse with other therapies can give you even more benefits. They can be paired with energy-based treatments or other injectables, depending on your provider’s advice. 

Good Candidates for Hyperdilute Radiesse

Patients seeking natural-looking results and enhanced skin quality without surgery are often ideal candidates for hyperdilute Radiesse. This treatment is well-suited for individuals who want gradual improvements in firmness, elasticity, and texture, rather than dramatic, immediate changes. It’s especially beneficial for those looking to address skin laxity, volume loss, or uneven texture in areas like the neck, arms, or décolletage.

Good candidates should be in overall good health, free from any active infections or skin conditions in the treatment area. It’s important that patients do not have allergies to any of the ingredients in the Radiesse filler. This treatment is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, as its safety has not been established in these cases. Additionally, patients who are willing to commit to a series of treatments and follow proper post-treatment care typically achieve the best outcomes.

How to Prepare for Radiesse Hyperdilute Treatments

Avoid anti-inflammatory medications, aspirin, or supplements like fish oil for at least a week before your appointment, as they can increase the risk of bruising. Keep the treatment area clean and free of heavy skincare products or makeup on the day of your session. If you’ve had recent cosmetic treatments like lasers or microneedling, let us know to ensure proper timing between procedures. Staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy diet in the days leading up to your treatment can also support your skin’s recovery and response.

What Does the Treatment Involve?

During the treatment, hyperdilute Radiesse is injected using a fine needle or cannula. The session typically begins with cleansing and numbing the treatment area with a topical cream to promote comfort. Once the product is injected, we may massage the area gently to help with even distribution. Depending on the area being treated, the process usually takes 30-60 minutes. After the treatment, you are free to continue with your day and you can drive yourself home from the appointment. 

Proper Post-Treatment Care for Hyperdilute Radiesse

While the area heals, avoid strenuous activities, direct sun exposure, and heat-based treatments like saunas or hot yoga. This can help keep the swelling down and allow your skin to heal faster. Stay hydrated and keep using a healthy skincare routine, though you should avoid the use of exfoliates or other harsh ingredients the first few days after treatment. We may have you massage the injected area to promote the stimulation of collagen and prevent lumps, but wait for our specific instructions regarding facial massage.
