How Radiesse Works
Mechanism of Action
-  Radiesse works through the injection of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Upon injection, Radiesse provides immediate volume and lift. Over time, the CaHA microspheres stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, enhancing the firmness and shape of the buttocks.
Areas of Treatment
Radiesse can be strategically injected to:
- Enhance overall buttock volume
- Lift and contour the buttocks
- Correct minor asymmetries
- Smooth out dimples and cellulite
Longevity and Effectiveness
Results from Radiesse butt lifts are both immediate and long-lasting. Patients typically enjoy the benefits for up to 18 months, with some even experiencing results beyond this period due to continued collagen production.
