Radiesse is the first and only FDA-approved CaHA (Calcium hydroxylapatite) injectable treatment in the U.S. Radiesse is commonly used as a dermal filler that helps to restore volume loss and enhances areas such as the cheeks, chin, and jaw. However, the most impressive benefit of Radiasse is the stimulation of collagen and elastin* production when used in a hyperdiluted form. Unlike other hyaluronic acid-based fillers, it works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.

When diluted and injected superficially, Radiesse acts as a bio stimulating agent that improves skin quality and firmness. Wrinkles and fine lines become smoother and the skin takes on a youthful elasticity. Nob Hill Medical & Aesthetics is proud to start offering Hyperdiluted Radiesse treatments to smooth unwanted lines on the neck, chest, and other parts of the body such as the buttocks.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, found in the bones, muscles, skin, and tendons. Elastin is also a protein naturally occurring in the body but is responsible for allowing tissue in the body to “snap back” (like a rubber band) to its original shape after being stretched. These two proteins work together to give skin its shape and firmness. Collagen provides rigidity, while elastin allows the skin to stretch when we make an expression. In other words, Both collagen and elastin work together to give the skin suppleness, hydration, and a youthful glow. As we age, collagen & elastin production begins to deplete, causing volume loss, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. Unfortunately, aging and environmental causes such as sun damage make it harder for your body to produce these components. Radiesse in a hyperdiluted form works as a stimulating agent that helps to promote collagen and elastin production, restoring the foundation of your skin for a more youthful, firmer skin.
