Radiesse Cheek Lift demonstration at Well Medical Arts

Dominique demonstrates a typical cheek augmentation procedure using Radiesse for the replacement of lost volume. Radiesse is our thickest calcium based dermal filler that immediately replenishes lost volume. It is also the only biodegradable filler that 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.

hey there it’s Dominic well from wall

0:00:02.250,0:00:06.629
medical arts we just finished Saturday

0:00:04.410,0:00:07.830
and then we get to do the staff this is

0:00:06.629,0:00:11.250
Katie

0:00:07.830,0:00:13.910
and we get to watch radius into the

0:00:11.250,0:00:16.590
cheeks radius is my favorite

0:00:13.910,0:00:18.510
biodegradable filler because it’s the

0:00:16.590,0:00:21.359
thickest filler of all of them made out

0:00:18.510,0:00:23.850
of calcium hydroxyl apatite it will give

0:00:21.359,0:00:25.500
a really nice lift with the smallest

0:00:23.850,0:00:27.599
amount of product so it’s a great

0:00:25.500,0:00:30.599
workhorse for me here in the clinic okay

0:00:27.599,0:00:33.210
to do the cheeks first I like to draw

0:00:30.599,0:00:35.670
and just to go over how I draw I will

0:00:33.210,0:00:38.280
use the lateral brow and come down I

0:00:35.670,0:00:40.980
will use the canvas and come down and

0:00:38.280,0:00:45.629
just put about a centimeter in between

0:00:40.980,0:00:49.140
each bolus and then and that’s to do a

0:00:45.629,0:00:53.420
lateral cheek to build some cheekbone

0:00:49.140,0:00:53.420
baby tell me when you’re good and cold

0:00:53.809,0:01:00.629
these little Ike’s packs work great

0:00:57.890,0:01:03.780
you’re good okay

0:01:00.629,0:01:05.970
so first the hand and I like to kind of

0:01:03.780,0:01:14.250
tug back to help an anchor a little bit

0:01:05.970,0:01:18.390
take a breath in and exhale not too bad

0:01:14.250,0:01:21.360
so go down tap the periosteum and then

0:01:18.390,0:01:23.130
frequently when you start injecting you

0:01:21.360,0:01:26.220
might be able to hear it a little bit

0:01:23.130,0:01:29.159
and with the radius sometimes you can

0:01:26.220,0:01:29.520
hear a little bit of a crackle can you

0:01:29.159,0:01:35.299
hear that

0:01:29.520,0:01:35.299
mm-hmm uh-huh that’s normal that’s good

0:01:36.680,0:01:43.649
and so injecting really nice and slow

0:01:40.320,0:01:51.710
and steady helps cause less tissue

0:01:43.649,0:01:55.100
trauma less swelling nice

0:01:51.710,0:01:56.810
and then go across and just holes a

0:01:55.100,0:01:58.220
little even fresher first night all

0:01:56.810,0:02:00.770
right so now we’re gonna do the other

0:01:58.220,0:02:05.000
side on Katie this will be syringe

0:02:00.770,0:02:07.730
number two of the radius typically

0:02:05.000,0:02:13.760
that’s what people need for a nice lift

0:02:07.730,0:02:16.660
all right take the breath in and exhale

0:02:13.760,0:02:19.190
tiny poke good job babe

0:02:16.660,0:02:25.340
good job keep them calm with the

0:02:19.190,0:02:27.790
breathing and then slow and steady easy

0:02:25.340,0:02:27.790
does it

0:02:27.820,0:02:35.540
you’re doing great yeah big cleansing

0:02:31.130,0:02:36.980
breath shake it off I am you know it

0:02:35.540,0:02:38.840
really isn’t bad it’s just for a few

0:02:36.980,0:02:40.520
seconds but I can feel the pressure a

0:02:38.840,0:02:42.890
little bit it’s just a weird sensation

0:02:40.520,0:02:44.540
but it was really not as painful as I

0:02:42.890,0:02:46.160
thought it was gonna be I feel the same

0:02:44.540,0:02:49.310
thing I feel the Pope going and it’s not

0:02:46.160,0:02:50.959
mad zero to ten nobody’s given me over a

0:02:49.310,0:02:53.510
three I were to give it about a three

0:02:50.959,0:02:56.900
myself and then I feel the pressures it

0:02:53.510,0:02:58.310
starts to fill up tell me when you’re

0:02:56.900,0:03:00.140
good and cold sometimes the ice hurts

0:02:58.310,0:03:02.360
more than the filler actually I’m ready

0:03:38.200,0:04:00.819

0:03:54.340,0:04:07.769
right and let’s ice right got it tell me

0:04:00.819,0:04:15.340
when nice turn towards me let’s see oh

0:04:07.769,0:04:18.519
it’s looking awesome yay okay so we’re

0:04:15.340,0:04:22.570
gonna put more arnica on and sculpt we

0:04:18.519,0:04:27.190
just did two syringes of radius in the

0:04:22.570,0:04:29.770
cheeks to lift and contour what we can

0:04:27.190,0:04:31.930
expect is to have a little bit of

0:04:29.770,0:04:34.330
swelling just this little pinpoint

0:04:31.930,0:04:36.669
bleeding doesn’t usually really bruise

0:04:34.330,0:04:38.320
it’s if it really dripped that it

0:04:36.669,0:04:39.580
bruises I think all of these are gonna

0:04:38.320,0:04:43.150
be fine

0:04:39.580,0:04:44.680
she’ll be swollen about four days some

0:04:43.150,0:04:47.470
people a little less some people a

0:04:44.680,0:04:49.960
little bit more you it also goes through

0:04:47.470,0:04:52.030
a couple of stages of healing first you

0:04:49.960,0:04:54.580
can actually kind of feel the radius in

0:04:52.030,0:04:56.650
there it’s a little bit firm it’s also a

0:04:54.580,0:04:58.630
little swollen and kind of squishy if

0:04:56.650,0:05:00.310
you are a swell or swell or what

0:04:58.630,0:05:02.650
swelling will go to the path of least

0:05:00.310,0:05:05.440
resistance which is kind of up here

0:05:02.650,0:05:07.720
that’s typical for a lot of people and

0:05:05.440,0:05:09.820
then the the filler kind of integrates

0:05:07.720,0:05:12.190
into the tissue you don’t feel it as

0:05:09.820,0:05:14.650
much anymore and then it goes into a

0:05:12.190,0:05:17.260
phase where it’s building collagen as

0:05:14.650,0:05:19.419
far as how long it lasts different for

0:05:17.260,0:05:21.490
different amount of people I’ve seen it

0:05:19.419,0:05:23.919
be as short as people wanting to do

0:05:21.490,0:05:26.950
their cheeks every five months and I’ve

0:05:23.919,0:05:30.340
had women say it lasted them over a year

0:05:26.950,0:05:32.680
15 months so I think it also just

0:05:30.340,0:05:35.050
depends on how good do you keep it how

0:05:32.680,0:05:37.210
high you want to keep it and how much

0:05:35.050,0:05:40.070
collagen you have built from it how much

0:05:37.210,0:05:44.260
of that collagen has remained

0:05:40.070,0:05:44.260
but anyways we love it
