RADIESSE®
RADIESSE® is an innovative dermal filler that restores youthful volume and smooths out the visible signs of aging. Unlike other fillers, RADIESSE® uses calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres to instantly volumize the skin and stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. This dual action results in a more refreshed, natural-looking appearance that can last for years.
RADIESSE® treatment can address various concerns, effectively smoothing facial wrinkles and folds like smile lines, marionette lines, and pre-jowl folds. It can also restore youthfulness to the cheeks and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and tendons on the back of the hands. At The Aesthetics Loft, our skilled practitioners are experienced in providing customized RADIESSE® treatments to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Whether you want to enhance your features or address significant volume loss subtly, our team can tailor a treatment plan to meet your needs. Results may vary based on individual conditions and the areas treated, but generally, you’ll notice immediate improvements, with results lasting up to two years. Schedule a consultation to discuss your goals and determine the best RADIESSE® approach for you.

Pre And Post Care
RADIESSE® PRE AND POST CARE
RADIESSE® is a minimally invasive treatment that restores volume and stimulates collagen production in your skin. This two-action filler fills in wrinkles and folds, making you look younger and fresher for years. At The Aesthetics Loft, our experienced practitioners use RADIESSE® to address various concerns, such as smile lines, marionette lines, loss of cheek volume, and volume loss in the hands.
While you’ll see immediate improvement after your RADIESSE® treatment, the full results will continue to develop as your body produces new collagen. Results can persist for up to two years, depending on the individual and their factors. We offer thorough pre- and post-treatment care counseling to meet your needs. We encourage you to contact our clinic with questions or concerns before or after your appointment.
