Radiesse
Radiesse in Vancouver B.C.
Only Radiesse® provides an instant lift and stimulates collagen and elastin production for long-term results.
Radiesse can be used as a dermal filler or as a skin stimulant. Calcium hydroxylapatite particles in Radiesse act as a "biological stimulant" for your body to produce collagen and elastin. Your skin will plump up, wrinkles will smooth, and tightening will begin within four weeks. You can expect results that last for years.
Radiesse Before and After
-
Radiesse® Technology
The Radiesse CaHA gel matrix immediately improves the appearance of the wrinkles following injection. When CaHA particles are incorporated into your skin, they create a "scaffold" that stimulates collagen and elastin production. As the gel carrier breaks down, collagen fibres form, smoothing lines and promoting renewed skin structure.

Radiesse FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Radiesse be dissolved?
Typically not. However, Dr. Godley has a unique technique offering options for dissolving the filler.
Does Radiesse build collagen?
Yes, it stimulates collagen production. The tiny calcium hydroxylapatite spheres not only add immediate volume but also boost the body's collagen, enhancing skin elasticity for longer-lasting results.
How long does it take for Radiesse to work?
It starts working immediately, with a visible volume increase right after injections. Over days and weeks, ongoing collagen production improves the skin.
How long does Radiesse last?
Up to 2-3 years, surpassing the average duration of HA fillers, which last about a year.
Who should not use Radiesse?
Avoid it if allergic to components, a bleeding disorder, or if pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to lidocaine or similar drugs. Following these precautions ensures safe use.
