There are many options in dermal fillers, including Radiesse®, which contains calcium hydroxylapatite. A combination of calcium and phosphate, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa) dermal fillers work by adding volume under the skin almost instantly and can stimulate the production of collagen for more youthful, firm skin. LL Aesthetics in Miami Beach, FL, offers Radiesse and CaHa dermal filler injections to add beautiful volume to the skin.
What Is Calcium Hydroxylapatite?
Dermal fillers such as Radiesse contain calcium hydroxylapatite or CaHa microspheres in a gel. This is an FDA-approved dermal filler that is used to add volume under the skin safely and effectively. CaHa dermal fillers have ions of phosphate and calcium that work with the hydrogen, oxygen and carbon in the gel to plump under the skin. When injected, there are almost instant results that lift the skin with more volume. Over the following week, the skin will become even more volumized and the result can last for a year or longer.
Over time, the CaHa filler is safely absorbed by the body. What makes these dermal fillers wonderful is that they naturally stimulate new collagen production. So, as the filler is eliminated, the best skin volumizer, collagen, is left in its place. This is why the results last much longer than many other dermal fillers.
Uses for CaHa (Radiesse) Injections
The most popular areas for Radiesse or CaHa injections are the nasolabial folds (smile lines) and the back of the hands. Radiesse injections have enough density that they can fill in the lost volume under the skin in the lower cheeks or on the hands. If you have the parentheses around your nose or mouth, CaHa injections can smooth these away for a year or longer. Radiesse injections also can smooth aging hands, hiding veins and pronounced tendons for more youthful-appearing hands.
