Radiesse

The most commonly treated zones at our Fishkill, NY practice include the cheeks and midface, the nasolabial folds (the lines running from the nose to the mouth), marionette lines, and the pre-jowl area along the lower face. Radiesse is also FDA-approved to restore lost volume on the back of the hands, softening the appearance of prominent tendons and veins for a more youthful look.

One of Radiesse’s standout uses is jawline and chin contouring, it provides the structure and lift needed to sharpen a soft or receding profile. For patients concerned with overall skin crepiness and laxity, we also offer hyperdilute Radiesse, a specialized technique that spreads collagen stimulation across broader areas. Radiesse is not used in the lips; for lip enhancement, we recommend our hyaluronic acid fillers instead.

After a thorough facial assessment and mapping of your treatment areas, your injector cleanses the skin and administers the filler using a fine needle or a blunt-tipped cannula. Most Radiesse formulations are pre-mixed with lidocaine for added comfort, so the procedure is well tolerated, most patients describe only mild pressure during placement.

You will see volumizing results immediately, with continued improvement as new collagen develops over the next two to three months. Downtime is minimal: you can return to most daily activities right away, though we ask that you avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and pressure on the treated areas for about 24 hours. Temporary swelling, redness, tenderness, or minor bruising at the injection sites is normal and usually resolves within a few days. Radiesse results are long-lasting, typically enduring a year or more, often longer than many hyaluronic acid fillers.

Instead of adding noticeable volume, hyperdilute Radiesse acts as a powerful biostimulator that improves skin quality, firmness, and texture from within.

This approach is especially popular for treating crepey skin and early laxity on the neck, décolletage, upper arms, abdomen, and knees, as well as for an overall glow and tightening effect on the face. Because results build gradually and naturally, hyperdilute Radiesse is an excellent option for patients who want smoother, tighter, healthier-looking skin without the look of added fullness. During your consultation at our Fishkill medspa, we will determine whether standard or hyperdilute Radiesse, or a combination, best fits your goals.
