As we age , the collagen in the dermis and the supporting structures that hold up the skin decrease together, weakening the skin's foundation. This is why the skin becomes thinner and loses elasticity.

The main ingredient of Radiesse, CaHA (Calcium Hydroxyapatite) , is a mineral found in bones and teeth. When the microspheres contained in the gel settle into the dermis, the gel creates immediate volume, and the microspheres stimulate fibroblasts to produce new collagen.

Therefore, it fills up immediately upon application, and collagen continues to fill up over several months even after the gel is absorbed. Over time, CaHA breaks down into calcium and phosphate ions and does not remain in the body.

CaHA microspheres
01

What is CaHA?

The main ingredient of Radiesse CaHA is calcium hydroxyapatiteIt is a component similar to the minerals that make up our body's bones and teeth. Smooth spherical microspheres with a diameter of 25–45 µmIt is evenly mixed in a sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) gel.

It consists of approximately 30% microspheres and 70% gel carriers. PLLA provides stimulation with its coarse particles, while CaHA is smooth and uniformly sized spheres, allowing it to settle seamlessly at the injection site.

Dual action of immediate volume and collagen production
02

Instant volume and collagen at the same time

Immediately after injection CMC gel fills the volume, instantly increasing volume.This occurs. The gel is naturally absorbed over several weeks, and the CaHA particles remaining in that spot stimulate fibroblasts Collagen (Type 1, Type 3), elastin, and proteoglycans are produced do.

The effects are visible immediately, followed by changes similar to a collagen promoter. The biggest difference from hyaluronic acid fillers is that newly formed tissue fills the space even after the gel wears off.

The thinned dermis thickens from the inside.

Skin that has thinned due to frequent treatment, aging, and external stimuli It fills up again starting from the dermis layer. The dermal thickness measured by ultrasound is Increases by approximately 12% 4 months after the treatment and approximately 27% 7 months after.I did.

Based on clinical data from the manufacturer (Merz), measurements are study results and may differ from actual outcomes. There are individual differences in the effects and rate of change.

Treatment Areas

Radiesse treatment area

Focusing on areas that have lost elasticity and thinned,
Divide the layers and volume to inject evenly.

Radiesse treatment area
cheekbones
front ball
side cheek
nasolabial folds
Marionette
Wrinkles on the back of the hand
neck wrinkles

The injection method varies depending on the area and purpose. For areas requiring volume, such as cheek hollowing, the undiluted solution is injected deeply, while for the purpose of improving fine lines, skin texture, and elasticity, it is diluted with physiological saline and lidocaine and injected widely into the shallow layers.

There are areas where Radiesse is not injected. For areas with thin skin or significant movement, such as the lips, lip line, eyelids, and under the eyes, particles may be visible, so we recommend a different treatment.

Radiesse has a different purpose than hyaluronic acid fillers.
Fillers inject external substances to create volume on the spot and are absorbed after several months, but Radiesse creates volume immediately and increases my collagen, so the changes last longer.

The Episode Difference

Why It's Different

Every process has its own reason for the EPISODE.

01

As is - To be - Design

Volume analysis

First, check which areas have lost elasticity and volume, and
To match the desired impression,
Divide the injection layer, volume, and dilution ratio by site.

ANALYSIS

02

Accurate product and capacity
I confirm it right before my eyes.

Authenticity, Check Capacity

Radiesse is treatment using pre-filled syringes. After checking the genuine label together, open, We also show you the usage capacity exactly as it is.

RELIABILITY

If you keep a record
The changes are more visible.

Online treatment Report

Because collagen is produced slowly over several months, it is difficult to notice changes in the face you see every day. Leave the product used, site, injection volume, and dilution ratio in an online report. It is used as a criterion for judging the effect of Radiesse.

Notice

Please observe these points after the treatment .

  • 1

    Immediately after the treatment , immediate volume is visible due to the gel carrier. As the gel is absorbed over several weeks, it may feel like the volume decreases slightly, but this is a normal process as collagen fills in over time.

  • 2

    Please gently massage the treatment area according to the instructions to help it settle smoothly. If it feels tight, gently press and spread it out in a circular motion.

  • 3

    Please apply a cold compress to the treatment area. Please wrap the ice in a towel or similar material to prevent it from touching the skin directly.

  • 4

    Please avoid alcohol, strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot compresses for 24 hours after the treatment . Swelling and bruising may worsen.

  • 5

    Swelling usually subsides in 2–3 days, and bruising mostly disappears within 1–2 weeks. The injection mark can be covered with makeup starting the next day.

  • 6

    Collagen gradually increases over several weeks to months after the treatment . It is normal for changes to appear slowly.

  • 7

    Please contact the hospital if you experience a palpable lump, persistent pain, or redness at the treatment site. In most cases, these symptoms improve with observation, but they require confirmation.
