Presentation Developed by Merz Aesthetics, Radiesse 1.5ml Lidocaine is an innovative dermal filler designed to provide both immediate volume and long-term skin rejuvenation. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, its advanced formula is based on Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a resorbable aqueous gel carrier. This unique composition not only instantly plumps and sculpts facial contours but also acts as a potent biostimulator, encouraging the body's natural production of collagen and elastin. The inclusion of lidocaine ensures a more comfortable treatment experience for the patient.

Key treatment areas include the jawline for better definition, the chin to correct receding profiles, deep nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and hollow cheeks.
It is also utilized for non-surgical rhinoplasty to smooth nasal bumps and for hand rejuvenation to restore firmness to aging skin. Posology The injection should be administered into the deep dermis or subcutaneously by a certified healthcare professional.

FAQ
How long do the results of Radiesse 1.5ml Lidocaine last? While the volumizing effect is immediate, the collagen-stimulating properties help maintain the aesthetic improvements for up to 18 months in many patients. How does it differ from hyaluronic acid fillers?
Radiesse relies on Calcium Hydroxylapatite, which provides stronger structural support and actively stimulates the body's own fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. Is the treatment painful? Thanks to the 0.3% lidocaine integrated into the formula, discomfort during the injection process is greatly minimized.
