Radiesse® is a next-generation injectable treatment designed to lift, contour, and stimulate collagen in one step. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Radiesse doesn’t just fill, it works beneath the surface to rebuild your skin’s structure over time. Using calcium-based microspheres, this biostimulatory treatment provides both immediate volume and long-term skin rejuvenation, making it a powerful choice for those seeking natural, visible correction.
Ideal for restoring definition in the jawline, smoothing deeper lines, and improving skin quality on the face and hands, Radiesse delivers elegant, structural results that last.

Benefits of Radiesse
-
IMMEDIATE VOLUME, LONG-TERM RESULTS
Radiesse provides instant structure and lift while stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. The result? A refreshed look now and a firmer, more youthful appearance over time. -
BIOSTIMULATORY POWER
Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Radiesse is made from CaHA (calcium hydroxylapatite) microspheres, a unique ingredient that supports the skin’s natural regenerative process for longer-lasting firmness. -
NATURAL-LOOKING LIFT
Radiesse is ideal for contouring areas like the jawline, chin, and lower face where definition often fades with age. It delivers a sculpted but soft result, enhancing rather than changing your features. -
VERSATILE & STRUCTURAL
Radiesse is not just for volume loss, it can be hyperdiluted to act as a skin-tightening agent in the décolletage, neck, and arms, making it one of the most adaptable injectables available.

FAQs
For more general enquiries, please take a look at some of our frequently asked questions.
What is Radiesse used for?
Radiesse is a unique dermal filler used to restore volume, contour facial features, and stimulate collagen production. It’s commonly used for the cheeks, jawline, chin, nasolabial folds, and even hands – delivering structural support and long-term skin rejuvenation.
How should I prepare for Radiesse treatment?
Avoid alcohol, anti-inflammatory medication (such as ibuprofen or aspirin), and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours before your appointment to minimise bruising. Arrive with clean skin and no active skin infections in the treatment area.
What does Radiesse treatment involve?
After a detailed consultation, your practitioner will cleanse the skin and may apply numbing cream for added comfort. Radiesse is then carefully injected using a needle or cannula, depending on the area being treated. You can return to most activities immediately after.
How long does Radiesse last for?
Radiesse typically lasts 12 to 18 months, but many patients enjoy benefits beyond this due to its collagen-boosting effect. Longevity depends on your metabolism, lifestyle, and the area treated.
When will I see results?
You’ll notice immediate volume restoration after treatment, with further improvement over the next few weeks as new collagen forms. Final results are usually seen between 4 to 6 weeks post-treatment.
What happens after treatment?
You may experience slight swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a few days. Most clients return to normal activities straight away. Aftercare advice will be provided to support the best results.
How much does Radiesse cost?
Pricing depends on the amount of product required and the treatment area. A full quotation is provided after your consultation, tailored to your individual goals. Some clients may benefit from a combination treatment plan.
Does Radiesse hurt?
Most patients find the procedure very tolerable. Radiesse contains lidocaine (a local anaesthetic) to minimise discomfort, and we use advanced injection techniques to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience.
Is Radiesse suitable for men?
Yes, Radiesse is a popular choice for male patients seeking sharper definition in the jawline, chin, or midface. Its structural nature makes it ideal for masculine facial contouring without looking overdone.
Is Radiesse safe?
Radiesse is MHRA-approved and has a well-established safety profile. When administered by an experienced medical professional, it is a safe and effective option for volumisation and collagen stimulation.
Are there any side effects?
As with any injectable, you may notice mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site. These are temporary and generally mild. Serious complications are rare and will be discussed during your consultation.
