Radiesse is made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. The microspheres are similar to minerals found naturally in the body, so allergy testing is not required. Over time, the body absorbs the microspheres and gel, leaving behind only natural collagen.
Once injected, Radiesse plumps the skin to give it the appearance of a smoother surface. Over time, Radiesse works to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. The body ultimately absorbs the product and leaves behind the natural collagen for long-lasting results.

Radiesse is injected under the skin during a quick procedure. It is also FDA-approved to mix with anesthetic, which means the procedure will be much more comfortable. In fact, in a clinical study, 90% of patients treated reported significant pain reduction when injected with Radiesse mixed with lidocaine anesthetic.
There is little to no downtime post Radiesse treatment.
Radiesse can be injected in the following locations:
Radiesse is FDA-approved for correction of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds. If you are seeking to address fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity or volume loss, Radiesse might be right for you. Talk to your provider about what your specific treatment needs may be and to see if you are a good candidate for Radiesse in Utah.
The most common adverse events include bruising, redness, swelling, pain, tenderness, and itching. These side effects generally last for a short time and are mild in nature. These are not all of the possible side effects. Tell your healthcare provider about any side effects that bother you or do not go away.
Radiesse should not be used in patients with severe allergies manifested by a history of anaphylaxis, a history or presence of multiple severe allergies, or patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the components.
The safety of Radiesse has not been established in patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding or under the age of 18.

Our Nurse Injectors are fully licensed in the State of Utah and highly trained by the companies that manufacture injectables, as well as independent trainers. Unlike other providers, Nurse Practitioners are uniquely qualified to assess, prescribe (since all neurotoxins and dermal fillers are prescriptions) and administer these products since they are licensed to do so under Utah State law.
Here at Aesthetica we offer the best of the best. We carry the most prestigious neurotoxins in the industry like Botox and Dysport. We also offer injectable fillers like the Juvederm Collection of Fillers, Restylane, Radiesse, and Voluma all to satisfy your most unique needs. Finally, to provide that additional edge we also offer Kybella, a fat destroyer injectable to help you ditch the double chin!
