Rebuild Volume and Stimulate Collagen Naturally

RADIESSE is a collagen-stimulating filler that can restore lost volume and improve skin structure. Unlike hyaluronic acid-based fillers, RADIESSE is made with calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres that provide immediate lift while encouraging your body to produce collagen. It’s commonly used to smooth deep facial folds, contour the jawline, and rejuvenate aging hands. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, every RADIESSE treatment is physician-performed and tailored to your anatomy to deliver natural-looking results.

RADIESSE Treats:

  • Deep nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines around the mouth
  • Pre-jowl and jawline sagging
  • Volume loss in the cheeks
  • Aging or bony-looking hands
  • Chin and jawline contour irregularities
  • Skin laxity in the lower face

How Does RADIESSE Work?

RADIESSE is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Once injected, the gel provides immediate volume and structural support. Over time, the CaHA particles stimulate your natural collagen production, gradually improving skin thickness and elasticity.

As the gel is absorbed, new collagen takes its place, creating results that look and feel natural. This process makes RADIESSE both a filler and a biostimulator, offering longer-lasting rejuvenation than many traditional fillers.

Benefits of RADIESSE:

  • Provides immediate volume and lift
  • Stimulates natural collagen production
  • Long-lasting results (12 to 18 months)
  • Improves skin texture and firmness over time
  • Suitable for both face and hands
  • Non-surgical with minimal downtime
  • Biocompatible and naturally absorbed by the body

Is RADIESSE Safe?

Yes, RADIESSE is FDA-approved and considered safe for most patients when administered by a qualified medical professional. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, all treatments are performed or closely supervised by Dr. Melamed, a double board-certified physician with expertise in facial anatomy and injectable techniques. RADIESSE is also biocompatible, meaning it’s well-tolerated by the body and naturally absorbed over time.

RADIESSE FAQs

What Does RADIESSE Feel Like When Injected?

Most patients describe the sensation as a mild pinch or pressure. To ensure your comfort, Dr. Melamed may use a topical numbing agent. The procedure is typically well-tolerated, and most patients return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure.

How Soon Will I See the Results?

You’ll see immediate volume improvement right after your treatment. Over the following weeks, collagen production increases, further enhancing your skin’s texture and firmness. This combination of instant and long-term effects is one of RADIESSE’s key advantages.

How Long Do the Results of RADIESSE Last?

You can expect results to last 12 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area, your skin condition, and your natural metabolic rate. Because RADIESSE stimulates collagen production, many patients notice that the quality of their skin continues to improve even after the initial volume has diminished. Maintenance treatments can extend your results even further.

Will I Look Overfilled or Unnatural?

Not at Melamed Weight & Wellness. Dr. Melamed’s philosophy emphasizes natural-looking, proportional enhancement. Because RADIESSE offers both immediate volume and gradual collagen stimulation, the results evolve in a balanced, subtle way.
