Radiesse

Providing expert radiesse injections to patients in Austin, Round Rock, and the surrounding areas of Texas

What is Radiesse?

As we age, our skin's own natural collagen breaks down, leaving us with wrinkles, facial lines and an overall loss of elasticity. Radiesse is a biocompatible, non-toxic and non-allergenic dermal filler that smoothes out these signs of aging by stimulating collagenesis, or the production of new collagen. Radiesse is known to treat the following problem areas:

• Smile lines
• Marionette lines (those running downward from the corner of your mouth)
• Oral commissure
• Pre-jowl

At the offices of Dr. David M. Turner, his highly trained and professional staff members are experienced in administering Radiesse in TX. They are happy to set up a consultation with you to see if you would benefit from Austin Radiesse injections.

How is Radiesse Performed in Austin?

Radiesse is administered through small injections in the face, and is performed in the comfort of your doctor's office. The injection consists of a compound of calcium hydroxyl apatite microspheres suspended in a gel containing organic compounds of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, glycerin and sterile water.

Before the injection, the patient will receive local anesthesia to minimize any discomfort. The procedure can take up to 15 minutes, and patients typically can return home and resume normal activity immediately.

Am I a Good Candidate for Radiesse in Austin?

Candidates for Texas Radiesse include those who are unhappy with wrinkles around the mouth and cheeks, as well as scarring or skin depressions. Patients are typically between the ages of 35 and 60. Also, ideal candidates have realistic expectations of their results. While Radiesse boasts about 80 percent improvement immediately after treatment, it is still just a temporary fix. You may need to have a follow-up treatment after two years to continue the benefits of Radiesse in Austin.

What Kind of Post-Operative Radiesse Care Can I Expect?

After your Austin Radiesse treatment, you may notice some slight swelling. This can last up to two days, but may be minimized by applying ice to the treated area. You're free to resume normal activities immediately; however, you may want to avoid any activity causing facial muscles to move excessively for 48 hours. This includes chewing gum, drinking through straws, laughing, etc. Your doctor may also advise you to limit sun exposure following the procedure.
