From its unique formulation to its impressive results, Radiesse has garnered attention in Bend OR for its ability to enhance natural beauty with precision and finesse. Whether you desire to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, restore volume to sunken areas, or simply rejuvenate your overall facial aesthetic, Radiesse is a reliable solution.

What Is Radiesse?

Radiesse stands apart from traditional dermal fillers due to its composition, which consists of microspheres of calcium hydroxylapatite suspended in a gel carrier. It has a thicker consistency than hyaluronic acid fillers, providing better support and volume restoration.

Aside from the immediate volumizing effects, Radiesse also stimulates collagen production. Collagen is a protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. By stimulating the production of collagen in your skin, this remarkable filler extends its benefits well beyond the initial treatment, yielding long-term improvements to your skin’s overall texture and appearance.

Ideal Candidates

If you have moderate wrinkles and creases such as marionette lines and deepening nasolabial folds, then you may be a good candidate for Radiesse injections. Additionally, if you want to address volume loss on your cheeks, jawline, or temples, you may be recommended for this non-surgical treatment option.

Radiesse is commonly administered to individuals ages 30 and older, but if you are in your 20s, you may still be eligible for treatment.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you may not be recommended for Radiesse treatments. You should not have a history of severe allergies, particularly to any components of Radiesse.

Your Consultation

Your consultation for Radiesse includes an examination of your target areas, during which your overall skin health, laxity, and volume are evaluated. Your medical history will be reviewed to ensure you have no bleeding disorders, active infections, or tendency for keloid scarring. Your aesthetic goals will be discussed to create a bespoke treatment plan for your specific concerns.

The Treatment Session

At the start of your Radiesse treatment session, the targeted areas will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, dirt, or oils. Topical anesthesia may be administered to ensure your comfort during the procedure. The filler may also include lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to further numb the region.

Next, Radiesse will be skillfully injected into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The whole process can take as little as 15 minutes.

Aftercare

Following a Radiesse treatment, you can expect minimal downtime. Some temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, or bruising, may occur but typically resolve within a few days. You can resume your daily activities immediately, although it’s advisable to avoid excessive sun exposure, strenuous exercise, and certain medications or supplements that may increase the risk of bruising.

How Much Do Radiesse Treatments Cost?

The cost of Radiesse treatments depends on several factors and varies from one patient to another. The overall price may be impacted by the number of treatment areas and the total number of syringes used.

“I am so pleased with the service and the results that I have received from Deschutes Dermatology. They are very professional, yet extremely caring and I have felt that they provide me with the best treatment for my particular situation. I truly appreciate the way they have been willing to work with me over time to achieve the results that we both want. I am their ‘Happy Patient.’ Thank you.”

“For the first time in over twenty years I am comfortable being seen in public without makeup save lip gloss and a little mascara. Early in 2013 I elected to have Dr. Carter do the DOT laser therapy on my face. While the immediate outcome of the treatment was somewhat invasive (as Dr. Carter shared with me well in advance) the results are phenomenal!!!! I’ve literally watched the tone and texture of my face improve in the months following. That combined with the Exilis procedure to tighten the area around my jaw has given me a new found confidence about my appearance.My very skeptical husband has put the knowledge to the test on more than one occasion and each time they have assuaged his fears and concerns. They are professional, caring and very intuitive to the needs of their clients.”

“Hi Team: Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your help and advice over the past couple of years with regard to my skin care. Having had problems with redness and a lot of brown spots, because of the time spent in the sun in my younger years, I had a complexion I was not happy with. With the products and the IPL treatment you suggested, my complexion improved.You also recommended the Dot Laser. I couldn’t believe my beautiful skin afterwards and I have received so many compliments on my complexion. I also enjoy coming to you for the peels you offer. This really does keep my skin glowing and feeling good. The peel of the month is a great bargain and it’s fun to try the different peels. I like that you keep on top of all the latest skin treatments and enjoy hearing about them. Many thanks,”

“I enjoyed your “scapel-side” surgery manner!! I also appreciated the professionalism and competency of your team!! Again a giant THANKS!”
“Deschutes Deramtology has been my “go to” place for skin cancer check-ups for years but then a few years ago a good friend told me I just HAD to see Dr. Carter about a procedure she had done. She looked great! Long story short, Dr. Leslie Carter did a procedure on me called DOT Laser. The results were more than remarkable. Honestly, people have told me I look 20 years younger. It has done so much for my confidence and overall self-perception. Plus, they took great care of me pre, post and during procedure. Would I do this again? Absolutely!!!”

“I never knew growing older could be so manageable until I met Patty Trapnell! I didn’t want to age without a fight, but I was completely clueless about how to proceed with treatments to fight my aging skin. Patty has the secret recipe. She knows how to keep me looking youthful, without looking fake or plastic. She takes so much ownership in what she does, and she always is so caring with follow up. She also creates a skin treatment plan for me that allows me to always look my best, without spending entire savings. She’s the best!”

Sondra B

“I’ve been a patient of Patty Trapnell’s for the past 8 years because I believe she is the very best at what she does. Patty has enormous integrity and such a high standard of professionalism, while also being kind and caring. She is so talented in the art of beauty. Patty has zeroed in on what works for my skin. She has addressed may problems with my skin, but most meaningful was help with an old scar, something I’ve always felt profoundly embarrassed over, and the results were absolutely phenomenal. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Patty!”
