Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler that is FDA-approved for the correction of facial wrinkles and folds. It works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production for long lasting results.

It stimulates collagen production and provides immediate volume while promoting long-term tissue regeneration.
