At Well Medical Art our RADIESSE dermal filler comes in 1.5cc Syringes, giving you half as much more filler per syringe than other dermal fillers.
Radiesse is a calcium based dermal filler that immediately replenishes lost volume and stimulates the production of your own natural collagen! It’s clinically proven to last a year or more in many patients. Radiesse is frequently used for the liquid face lift, which when strategically placed provides the lift needed to diminish signs of aging. Radiesse is the only dermal filler to come in 1.5cc syringes, essentially giving you 3 syringes for the price of 2 syringes of another brand.
RADIESSE® has been used to treat patients in over 57 countries worldwide. Radiesse was FDA approved for subdermal implantation for the correction of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds in 2006, and since that time over 6 million syringes have been sold worldwide. Radiesse works to add volume and may instantly hide the signs of wrinkles and creases for a more refreshed look. Individual results may vary.

How it Works
RADIESSE is a wrinkle filler used to plump the skin. RADIESSE is injected through a small needle and placed under the skin. Immediately, this filler works to add volume under the skin and over time, the benefits of RADIESSE continue by stimulating your body’s own natural collagen. The natural results have been shown to last a year or more in many patients, making the treatment results both immediate and long lasting. Follow this link to Radiesse.com to watch a video demonstration of Radiesse in action and see how it works.
RADIESSE is comprised of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in an aqueous gel carrier. Once injected, it provides immediate volume and correction but continues to work by stimulating the body to produce its own natural collagen. Over time, the gel is absorbed and the body metabolizes the CaHA microspheres leaving behind only your own natural collagen.
We love using Radiesse for lift and volume and use it in combination with Belotero to take away the fine lines as the finishing touch for a natural and refreshed look.

10 Tips to Minimize the Risk of Bruising After Wrinkle Reducers & Dermal Fillers
Cosmetic injectable treatments, such as wrinkle reducers and dermal fillers, can work wonders in filling out lines and wrinkles, but they may cause temporary bruising and swelling. Many patients ask us how to minimize or prevent bruising, and the good news is that there's a lot you can do before and after your appointment to minimize any unsightly coloring – and in some cases, prevent it altogether.
No injector can guarantee that you won't bruise from injectable treatments, but to avoid serious side effects, it's always best to go to the most expert injector in your area. To be on the safe side, don't plan any special events for at least 2 weeks after your injectable appointment. Remember, treatments can take 1 to 2 weeks for results to fully settle in, so unless something is really off, most minor problems will resolve with patience.
If you're just having a wrinkle reducer treatment (Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin), these suggestions are still good to follow, even though bruising is less common. However, dermal fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Sculptra, and Bellafill are slightly more invasive, and following these instructions will help prevent bruises or reduce their appearance more quickly. Please visit https://wellmedicalarts.com/pre-and-post-injectable-instructions/ for additional information and videos.
Here are a few pre and post-treatment tips that can help you avoid unnecessary bruising:
-
Avoid Aspirin & NSAIDs
-
Avoid Wine & Alcohol
-
Avoid Green Tea, Vitamin E, and Herbal Supplements
-
Skip the Gym
-
Choose a Qualified Injector
-
Apply Ice
-
Use Numbing Cream
-
Consider Anti-Bruising Supplements such as Arnica Montana
-
Practice Sun Protection
-
Plan Accordingly
If you do bruise, continue icing the affected areas, take Arnica as directed, and use a high-level concealer to hide temporary bruises. For lip bruises, lipstick can do the trick. The intensity and duration of your filler or Botox side effects will depend on the treatment aggressiveness and your individual healing characteristics, but they normally last for one to two weeks after the treatment.
