What are the benefits of this product?

Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine offers longer-lasting results when compared to hyaluronic acid fillers; results can last up to a year or more. This product is also particularly suited to correct more severe wrinkles and folds as it possesses better volumizing properties.

How does this Radiesse® (+) Plus 1.5 ml with Lidocaine work?

Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine contains particles of synthetic calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), which is commonly used in medicine and is a component of bone and teeth. When you inject the dermal filler gel, the particles add volume beneath the skin, supporting the skin and smoothing the appearance of wrinkles or folds. Although the CaHA gradually breaks down within the body, since it had acted as a scaffold for collagen to grow, it leaves behind these collagen fibers to maintain the volume. During the injection itself, the lidocaine in Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine acts as an anesthetic, numbing the injection area to reduce needle pain and discomfort that the patient might feel.

What are the ingredients?

Synthetic calcium hydroxylapatite suspended in a gel carrier with lidocaine.

Use Instructions

How to inject/administer this Radiesse® (+) Plus 1.5 ml with Lidocaine

Only qualified medical professionals should inject this dermal filler. To use Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine, first, disinfect the treatment area. Open the foil pouch containing the dermal filler syringe, remove the Luer syringe cap from the end of the syringe, then twist on a 27G needle onto the Luer lock fitting, ensuring it is tightened securely. Be sure to inject Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine into the deep dermis to avoid nodule formation and discoloration of the skin, and do not overcorrect. Insert the needle at a thirty-degree angle in the wrinkle or fold, and slowly inject the gel while withdrawing the needle, leaving a line of dermal filler. Repeat, adding additional lines of dermal filler until you have the amount of augmentation you need. Gently massage or mold the implant to help contour the skin. Refer to your Radiesse (+) 1.5ml with Lidocaine leaflet for complete instructions.
