Get the Facts on Noninvasive Radiesse Filler by Dr. Maltais

Many people would love to eliminate imperfections in their facial skin giving them a younger appearance, but they are hesitant to turn to plastic surgery. If this is you, the concept of the Radiesse injection will interest you. The treatment is fast, effective, and noninvasive. It is a type of dermal filler that is injected beneath the dermis to treat fine lines and wrinkles, often considered an alternative to surgical augmentation. Read on to learn more about the process and when you are ready to try Radiesse filler come visit us at Physician Skin Solutions at Arrowhead in Glendale. We'll be happy to consult with you and implement the procedure.

Radiesse filler has several important benefits for patients. One of the largest attractions of this treatment is it is one of the few injectable fillers that carries virtually no risk of allergic reaction. Most fillers contain artificial ingredients requiring doctors to check for allergies before administering the procedure. However, this filler boasts the naturally occurring calcium hydroxyl apatite microspheres in a water-based gel which can fill in spaces beneath the skin. Furthermore, the process of neocollagenesis stimulates the body to make new collagen in the area where the microspheres were injected. The result is soft, full skin that stays that way for more than a year in most cases.

Radiesse filler works quickly and is considered quite safe. Some facial contouring procedures require weeks, even months, to realize results. Radiesse filler delivers fuller skin immediately after treatment. As an added benefit, the procedure typically takes less than an hour. It's an outpatient procedure that allows many patients to get it done during their lunch break and return back to work immediately afterward. Additionally, when it comes to Radiesse filler, most patients only need one session to achieve your desired new look. This is in contrast to some fillers that require several sessions.

Over time the microspheres will be absorbed into your body; usually within one to two years. At that time, you can come back to see us and receive another Radiesse injection, keeping that youthful look. Why not try Radiesse filler today? Give us a call today and my staff at our Glendale based Physician Skin Solutions at Arrowhead will be ready to make your consultation appointment, or procedure appointment if you've made your decision, and I'll be ready to create a younger, softer face a reality for your face.
