REAL PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

He is an excellent plastic surgeon. I appreciated that he was very conservative on what needed to be done, and the results were fantastic. So very natural looking. And yet it probably took off a good 15 years of aging and sagging. I recommend him to anyone who does not want a “pulled” look, but one that is almost impossible to tell that any surgery had been done. That is No. 1 in my book.

I am happy to recommend Dr. Raymond Lee to any patient looking to improve their appearance. I am very happy with the results people tell me I look 10 years younger.

REAL PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

I placed my trust in Dr. Lee’s talent and ability and the quality of his work exceeded my expectations. When the bandages were removed the next day, there was not a spot of dried blood; they were clean. There was absolutely no discomfort and I looked amazingly refreshed and about 15 years younger.

Radiesse: Benefits and Applications

Published on August 1, 2023 by Raymond Lee

Radiesse is a remarkable dermal filler that stands out among its peers due to its unique properties and versatile applications. Composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, Radiesse offers a host of benefits and advantages. These set it apart as a leading choice for various aesthetic and medical procedures.

Calcium hydroxylapatite is a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that is derived from calcium and phosphate ions, which are naturally found in the human body. These microspheres are very small—about 25 to 45 micrometers in diameter—and serve as the foundation of Radiesse’s unique composition.

Long-Lasting Results

One of the key differentiators of Radiesse is its long-lasting effects. Unlike other dermal fillers that may require frequent touch-ups, Radiesse’s unique formulation enables it to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. As a result, the effects of Radiesse can last up to 18 months or more, making it a cost-effective and time-efficient option for patients seeking durable aesthetic improvements.

Collagen-Stimulating Properties

The unique composition of Radiesse not only provides immediate results but also stimulates the body’s natural collagen production over time. As the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres gradually break down, they encourage collagen synthesis, leading to continued improvements in skin texture and elasticity.

Volumizing and Lifting Properties

Radiesse excels at restoring lost volume and lifting sagging skin, making it an ideal choice for addressing facial aging concerns. The calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres provide immediate volume upon injection, helping to fill deep lines, creases, and wrinkles. They create a scaffolding in the skin tissues, restoring much-needed structure.

Versatility

Radiesse’s versatility is another standout feature. Its ability to treat various concerns across different facial areas sets it apart from other dermal injectables. From smoothing the nasolabial folds and marionette lines to restoring volume in the cheeks and temples, Radiesse proves to be an all-encompassing solution for facial rejuvenation.

While many dermal fillers focus solely on facial applications, Radiesse extends its benefits to hand rejuvenation. The backs of aging hands often display prominent veins, tendons, and wrinkled skin. By adding volume and stimulating collagen production in the backs of the hands, Radiesse helps restore a more youthful appearance to this often-neglected area.

No Recovery Time Required

Because Radiesse is an injectable dermal filler, it offers the benefit of allowing patients to get right back to their day after treatment. Since no recovery time is needed after a Radiesse treatment session, patients can enjoy cosmetic rejuvenation without derailing their busy schedule.
