Radiesse in Auckland – Lift, Define, and Rejuvenate Your Skin Naturally
Discover Radiesse, a unique injectable treatment that not only adds volume but also promotes collagen production to achieve natural, long-lasting skin rejuvenation. Perfect for clients looking to enhance facial contours, restore youthful volume, and improve skin quality, Radiesse offers a powerful alternative to traditional fillers.
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is an advanced, biostimulating dermal filler designed to both lift and support the skin while stimulating collagen. Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers, Radiesse uses calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. These microspheres work by supporting your skin’s structure and encouraging collagen production. Over time, Radiesse leaves behind natural collagen that continues to improve skin texture, firmness, and elasticity. This dual-action process means results are both immediate and progressive, making Radiesse an excellent option for long- lasting rejuvenation.

Possible Side Effects
While Radiesse is generally well-tolerated, some mild side effects may occur, which typically resolve within a few days. Common side effects include:
• Redness and Swelling: Minor redness and swelling at the injection site are common and usually fade within a few days.
• Bruising: Some clients may experience bruising around the treated area, which can be concealed with makeup as needed.
• Tenderness: Mild discomfort or tenderness in the treated areas may occur initially.
• Small bumps and lump: Rarely, small lumps or nodules appear and stay and may need additional treatment. Usually they integrate in your body over time.
Contact us if you experience prolonged discomfort or have any concerns post- treatment.
In rare cases, more serious side effects such as vascular occlusion can occur. This happens when the injected product accidentally blocks a blood vessel, which can lead to skin discoloration and, if untreated, may affect skin tissue. Vascular occlusion requires immediate medical attention to prevent complications. Please contact us right away if you experience prolonged discomfort, unusual color changes, or any concerning symptoms after treatment.
