Radiesse®
Radiesse offers a transformative approach to skin rejuvenation and facial contouring by addressing wrinkles and a lack of definition. This innovative dermal filler restores lost volume and stimulates collagen production for long-lasting benefits.
Dr. Joel L. Cohen, an esteemed figure in dermatology, and his team of Board-Certified Dermatologists at AboutSkin Dermatology and Aesthetics bring their expertise to deliver exceptional results with Radiesse treatments. Dr. Cohen has been involved in many clinical trials for dermal fillers, including Radiesse for the cheeks and jawline. His participation in these studies has given him a thorough understanding of the effectiveness and safety of various fillers. This extensive experience, combined with his advanced injection techniques and global teaching engagements, enables him and his team to achieve outstanding results for their patients.
What Is Radiesse®?
Radiesse is a dermal filler that uses calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres to provide immediate volume and lift while stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. This dual-action mechanism achieves instant improvements and sustained results as your skin’s structure strengthens over time.
What Can Radiesse® Treat?
Radiesse is versatile and effective for various aesthetic concerns, including:
- Nasolabial folds: Smooths the deep lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth
- Marionette lines: Reduces lines from the corners of the mouth down to the chin
- Cheek augmentation: Enhances volume and contour in the cheeks
- Jawline contouring: Defines and sculpts the jawline for a more youthful appearance
- Chin reshaping: Provides projection and balance to a recessed chin
- Hand rejuvenation: Restores volume to the back of the hands, reducing the appearance of veins and tendons
How Does Radiesse® Work?
Radiesse works through its unique composition of CaHA microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. When injected, the gel provides immediate volume and correction. Over time, the microspheres stimulate collagen production, which helps to maintain the enhanced volume. As the gel is absorbed, your body metabolizes the CaHA microspheres, leaving behind your natural collagen.
Benefits of Radiesse®
Radiesse offers several benefits, including:
- Immediate results: Enjoy noticeable improvements right after the treatment
- Long-lasting effects: Stimulates collagen production for results that can last a year or more
- Natural look and feel: Provides a smooth, natural appearance
- Versatility: Suitable for multiple areas of the face and hands

What to Expect During Your Radiesse® Consultation
Before Radiesse treatment, you’ll come into our Denver area practice for a thorough consultation with Dr. Cohen or one of our experienced Board-Certified Dermatologists. During this consultation, we will take the time to carefully assess your unique concerns, evaluate your candidacy for Radiesse and develop a customized treatment plan.
Listening to Your Aesthetic Goals
We prioritize understanding your aesthetic goals. Your Dermatologist will take the time to listen to your expectations and desires regarding the treatment. This conversation helps us align the Radiesse treatment with your vision of an enhanced appearance to achieve results that meet your satisfaction.
Personalized Analysis
Your Dermatologist will conduct a detailed analysis of the areas you wish to improve. This includes examining the specific wrinkles, volume loss and sagging skin you want to address. We use this assessment to create a tailored treatment plan that suits your needs.
Medical History and Overall Health
To promote a safe and effective treatment, we’ll review your medical history and overall health. This involves discussing any underlying conditions, allergies and previous cosmetic procedures you may have had. Understanding your health background helps us determine if Radiesse is the right choice for you.
Patient Education
If Radiesse is suitable for you, we will explain the treatment process in detail, including what to expect during and after the procedure. At AboutSkin Dermatology and Aesthetics, we prioritize patient education to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable with every aspect of your treatment.
What to Expect During Your Radiesse® Treatment
During the procedure, your Board-Certified Dermatologist will inject Radiesse into the targeted areas with a fine needle or cannula. The process is relatively quick, typically taking less than an hour, and minimal discomfort is experienced due to the inclusion of lidocaine in the formula.
Radiesse® Recovery and Downtime
Post-treatment, you may experience some swelling, redness and bruising at the injection sites. These effects are generally mild and subside within a few days. Most patients resume their normal activities shortly after the procedure. However, we recommend avoiding strenuous activities for 24 to 48 hours to prevent elevating your heart rate and blood pressure, which could lead to increased swelling and bruising.
Expected Results From Radiesse®
When Will I See My Radiesse® Results?
Patients see immediate results following Radiesse treatment, with full effects becoming more apparent as swelling decreases, usually within one to two weeks. This timeframe allows the filler to settle and any initial side effects to subside, revealing your final, enhanced appearance.
How Long Will My Radiesse® Results Last?
The collagen-stimulating properties of Radiesse continue to improve the volume of your skin over time, with results typically lasting between 12 and 18 months. Regular maintenance treatments can help sustain your refreshed look.
