Are Radiesse Treatment Painful?

Cold compresses and a topical analgesic are used to keep patients pain-free during the treatment. After the treatment, any pain medication can be used for relief if the minor swelling or bruising is hurting.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

A single appointment is needed to enjoy the benefits of a Radiesse Treatment. The effects last between six months and a year, after which you will need a maintenance appointment if you are interested in the longevity of your looks.

How Long Until I See the Results?

Most patients should be able to notice a difference immediately after their treatment. Any swelling sometimes takes a few days to resolve, so the final results are best noted a week later.

Can I Combine Radiesse Treatment with Other Procedures?

Absolutely! Our patients who have received Radiesse treatments in Chino have considered combining it with other injectables like BOTOX and wrinkle Relaxers to achieve a smoother and fuller face and/or hands. We recommend that you share any such plans with Nina Gaetano, PA-C, during your consultation so that she can make her expert suggestions on the best combined procedures for your individual case.

What Are the Risks Associated with Radiesse Treatment?

While a Radiesse Treatment in Chino and the Inland Empire is a low-risk treatment, it still has some associated risks. Some of them are listed below: Acne-like skin eruptions Asymmetry Bleeding from the injection site Bruising Damage to the skin that results in a wound and possible scarring Infection at the injection site Lumps The palpability of the filler under the surface of the skin Skin necrosis (ulceration or loss of skin from disruption of blood flow) Skin rash with itching Skin redness Swelling Under- or over-correction of wrinkles If you experience any long-lasting or unexpected reactions, please contact our office right away. In rare cases, if the filler is accidentally injected into your blood vessels rather than just under your skin, it can block blood flow. In that case, we recommend you call 911 immediately.

In Chino, CA

Radiesse Introduction

Radiesse is from a family of injectable fillers designed to plump the skin from below the surface to hide lines, wrinkles, and other imperfections. It has been a big hit for facial contouring for years, and now providers have FDA approval to use it on patients to achieve youthful-looking hands with the same soft substance that has been keeping their smile lines, chin wrinkles, and other areas at bay. This is the only FDA-approved filler for the hands, even though physicians have been using fat and hyaluronic acid off-label for years. Radiesse has a milky color and is opaque, which makes it ideal for hiding veins when injected under the skin. If you are interested in a treatment of Radiesse in Chino and the Inland Empire area, contact us at Bella Sol Med Spa and read more information below.

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a type of injectable dermal filler used to restore volume and youthful fullness. This, in turn, treats fine lines and wrinkles in our facial area, hands, and other delicate body parts. Radiesse’s formula uses naturally occurring minerals and hence is more popular with patients as it is non-toxic and non-allergenic. Unlike other dermal fillers that show an immediate result and then fade away in time, Radiesse sparks the creation of collagen to create a longer-term and more natural body response towards youthful longevity.

What’s the First Step?

During this consultation, Nina will carefully examine your skin and target areas and talk to you about your aesthetic goals, concerns, and expectations. She will also ask you to disclose any chronic conditions to determine whether you are a suitable candidate for this treatment.

Once you both agree that Radiesse treatment is the right option for your individual goals, she will create a treatment plan for you. You can then take the plan to our patient coordinator, who can help you schedule the treatment and provide pricing options.

What to Expect on the Day of a Radiesse Treatment

On the day of your Radiesse treatment, Nina Gaetano and her friendly staff will welcome you and go over your treatment plan with you in case of any last-minute adjustments. They will then make you comfortable in a treatment room. Finally, if needed, she will apply either a cold compress or a topical anesthetic cream to ensure a pain-free and comfortable treatment.

Using a fine needle, your provider will inject the Radiesse into the target area, massaging and distributing the filler optimally and for the results discussed in the consultation. She will keep adjusting the filler to make sure that the final shape and symmetry are balanced.

This procedure will take anywhere from ten minutes to half an hour without any complications, depending on the size of the target area.

Radiesse Recovery

Radiesse treatment is pain-free, and patients can resume normal activities immediately after. Some patients might experience mild swelling, redness, and bruising, but these are reported to resolve within a few days.
