• RADIESSE DERMAL FILLERS

  Radiesse is most ideal for treating the damage of deep facial creases and scarring. FDA approved, Radiesse is also one of the most effective reparative fillers for facial lipoatrophy - a side-effect of HIV - because of its ability to effectively and naturally augment the cheeks, chin and other afflicted areas of the face.

  Your blood is drawn, processed and separated (using the Harvest System) at which point the platelet-rich fraction is injected into the injured site. The concentration of PRP goes naturally to work, doing what it was designed to do; heal itself.

  Radiesse is injected beneath the surface of the skin with an ultrafine needle followed by a topical anesthetic to alleviate any discomfort the patient may experience.
