About

Radiesse is a unique injectable treatment that provides both immediate lift and long-term collagen stimulation. Unlike traditional fillers that only add volume, Radiesse works beneath the skin to restore structure while gradually improving skin firmness and quality over time. At Platinum Medical Spa, Radiesse is ideal for clients who want a sculpted, natural-looking result with continued improvement over several months and results that last longer than traditional fillers.

Pre-Care
Medical Disclosure & Eligibility

Please inform your provider of all current and past medical conditions, medications, supplements, and recent procedures. This includes blood thinners, hormonal therapies, antibiotics, and any condition affecting healing. Treatment is not recommended if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have active infections, or certain autoimmune or bleeding disorders. A full consultation is required to determine eligibility and ensure safe treatment. Clients with a history of severe allergies, anaphylaxis, or hypersensitivity should inform their provider, as this may affect treatment suitability. Clients prone to keloid or hypertrophic scarring should disclose this prior to treatment, as safety in these cases may be limited.

Medications, Supplements & Alcohol

Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements for at least 5–7 days prior to treatment unless medically necessary and approved by your physician. This includes aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, vitamin E, fish oil, omega-3 supplements, ginkgo biloba, and alcohol, as they may increase the risk of bruising and swelling.

Skin Health & Treatment Area Preparation

Ensure the treatment area is free from irritation, infection, rashes, or active breakouts. Treatment should be postponed if you have cold sores or skin inflammation. Clients with a history of herpes simplex may require antiviral medication prior to treatment.

Recent Treatments, Dental Work & Vaccinations

Avoid dental procedures, including cleanings or surgery, for at least 2 weeks before and after treatment. Inform your provider if you have had recent fillers, threads, laser treatments, or skin procedures within the past 2–4 weeks. Avoid scheduling treatment within 2 weeks of vaccinations or if you are feeling unwell. Please inform your provider of any implanted materials or previous fillers in the treatment area, as interactions may not be fully predictable.

Lifestyle Preparation & Hydration

Maintain good hydration and a healthy lifestyle prior to treatment. Avoid alcohol, smoking, and excessive caffeine 24 hours before your appointment, as these may impact healing and increase the risk of bruising or swelling.

Day of Treatment

Arrive with clean skin free of makeup, creams, or lotions. Avoid strenuous activity prior to your appointment. You may be photographed for medical documentation and progress tracking. Treatment is typically quick and well tolerated, with minimal discomfort.

The Benefits of
Radiesse
Immediate Lift & Contour

Radiesse provides instant volume and structural support, helping to lift and define areas such as the cheeks, jawline, and lower face. Results are visible immediately after treatment, creating a more sculpted and refreshed appearance.

Long-Term Collagen Stimulation

Beyond immediate results, Radiesse works beneath the skin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. This leads to gradual improvements in skin firmness, elasticity, and overall quality over the following months.

Natural-Looking, Long-Lasting Results

Radiesse delivers subtle, natural-looking enhancement that does not appear overfilled or artificial. Results develop over time and typically last longer than traditional fillers, making it an ideal option for sustained rejuvenation.

Versatile Treatment for Face and Body

Radiesse can be used to address multiple areas, including the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. It improves both volume loss and skin laxity, offering a comprehensive approach to rejuvenation and contouring.

Restore Structure, Lift, and Confidence with Radiesse

Your Radiesse journey begins with a personalized consultation to understand your facial structure, concerns, and aesthetic goals. This advanced injectable treatment is carefully placed to restore volume, enhance contour, and support the skin from within. The procedure is quick and well tolerated, with minimal downtime. You may notice an immediate improvement in lift and definition, followed by gradual enhancement in skin firmness and quality as collagen production increases over time. Depending on your goals, a customized treatment plan or series may be recommended. Clients often experience a more sculpted, refreshed appearance with results that continue to improve for months.

Post Care
Immediate Aftercare & Activity

Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and excessive heat such as saunas, hot tubs, and steam rooms for 24–48 hours after treatment. Avoid applying pressure to the treated area, including massaging or sleeping directly on it, unless instructed by your provider.

Expected Reactions

Mild swelling, redness, tenderness, and bruising are common and typically resolve within a few days. Some firmness, unevenness, or small nodules may be felt temporarily as the product settles and integrates into the tissue. The product may shift slightly from the original injection site. Mild asymmetry or unevenness may occur and can be reassessed if persistent.

Progressive Results & Healing Process

You may notice an immediate improvement in volume and contour after treatment. Over the following weeks to months, results continue to improve as your body produces new collagen, enhancing skin firmness, smoothness, and overall quality.

Skin Care & Sun Protection

Avoid excessive sun exposure, tanning, and heat for several days after treatment. Use sunscreen daily to protect the skin and maintain results. Avoid aggressive skin treatments or facials for at least 1–2 weeks unless advised by your provider.

When to Contact the Clinic

Contact the clinic immediately if you experience severe or worsening pain, excessive swelling, prolonged bruising, or signs of infection. Rare but serious complications may occur if the product is injected into a blood vessel, which can lead to tissue damage, skin discoloration (white, grey, or purple), or vision changes. Immediate medical attention is required.

Follow-Up & Maintenance

A follow-up appointment may be recommended to assess results and determine if additional treatment is needed. Results continue to improve over time, and maintenance treatments may be advised to sustain optimal outcomes. Results vary between individuals, and additional treatments may be required to achieve or maintain desired outcomes.
