Radiesse Lidocaine is an innovative dermal filler designed to correct age-related skin changes on the face. The product is used in aesthetic medicine to restore lost tissue volume, improve facial contours, and smooth wrinkles. The main advantage of Radiesse Lidocaine is its unique formula, which combines a calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) gel with a local anesthetic component, lidocaine, allowing procedures to be performed with minimal discomfort for the patient.
The manufacturer of Radiesse Lidocaine is Revance Therapeutics, Inc., a leader in the development of innovative solutions for aesthetic medicine and dermatology. The production process and controlled quality standards ensure a high level of safety and effectiveness of the product.
Composition. Methods and Techniques of Application
Composition:
- Main component: Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) in the form of microspheres, which acts as a framework to restore lost volume and stimulates the production of the skin’s natural collagen.
- Lidocaine: A local anesthetic that reduces pain during injections and enhances patient comfort.
Methods of Application: Radiesse Lidocaine is used for the correction of deep wrinkles, folds, improving facial contours, and increasing volume in areas such as the cheeks, chin, and hands. The product is injected using a fine needle or cannula into the dermal layers or subcutaneous tissue. The procedure is minimally invasive and requires a short recovery time.
Main Indications for Use:
- Deep wrinkles and folds (e.g., nasolabial folds, marionette lines).
- Loss of volume in the cheeks and chin area.
- Facial contour lifting.
- Correction of age-related skin changes on the hands.
The procedure typically takes between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area and injection volume. Results can last from 12 to 18 months, depending on individual patient characteristics.
