Look better than your age with Radiesse® injections! Radiesse restores lost volume and stimulates your body’s natural collagen production for skin that looks younger over time. Radiesse can also be used to add lift and volume to the buttocks for a curvier, firmer behind.
Once we hit our 20s, our body’s collagen production begins to decrease by 1 to 2% per year, causing skin to gradually lose volume. We’re all familiar with these effects: fine lines, crepey skin, wrinkles, and facial folds can begin to show up. Radiesse® injections at our Alpharetta, GA, med spa minimize aging’s effects by replenishing lost volume for long-lasting rejuvenation. We serve patients from throughout the Greater Atlanta region.
Radiesse is made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa) microspheres, which are suspended in a gel. CaHa is a naturally-occurring substance made of minerals (phosphate and calcium) found primarily in our bones.
Radiesse is FDA-approved to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles & folds and treat facial fat loss.
Once injected, the gel immediately goes to work filling in lines and wrinkles, while the CaHa particles are gradually absorbed into the skin. These particles stimulate your body’s natural collagen production and act as a scaffold, proving the structure for your skin’s collagen to grow. The result? Smoother, firmer, more youthful-looking skin that improves over the following months.
Radiesse is effective at treating the following:
A diluted form of Radiesse can also be used to add volume to the buttocks without surgery, a procedure known as an injectable butt lift.
While Radiesse injections can do wonders for a more youthful look, this injectable focuses on treating lines and volume loss in certain areas of the face. If you, like many of our patients, are also frustrated by additional skin concerns such as sagging skin or sun damage, a complementary treatment can easily be incorporated into your treatment plan for a more complete refresh!

The collagen-stimulating effects of Radiesse typically last between 12 to 18 months, with some patients enjoying results for up to 2 years. Because the CaHa particles are biocompatible with your tissues, they are gradually absorbed by your body, leaving your collagen in its place once they’re gone.
Radiesse results are visible immediately, with full results appearing within a week. Most patients continue to notice gradual skin improvements over the following months as their collagen production increases.
Radiesse treatments are performed in-office and typically take no longer than 15 minutes. You will be given a local anesthetic to avoid any pain or discomfort.
You can go home immediately after your appointment, making Radiesse the perfect lunchtime treatment. You should refrain from intense physical activity and avoid direct sunlight exposure for the first 24 hours following treatment.
We recommend patients receive follow-up injections every 2 years to maintain optimal results.
