Radiesse in Burlington

At Cosmedica Aesthetics, Radiesse in Burlington is an injectable procedure that improves the appearance of loose skin. The treatment is administered by one of our experienced nurse injectors who injects radiesse into specific areas of your skin. The injection adds volume back into the face and encourages the body’s natural production of collagen.

Each injection only takes a few minutes, so you can expect your session to be wrapped in less than an hour.

Radiesse works as a structural filler, shaping the collagen in your skin to help you achieve a fuller, more natural looking appearance. This, in addition to its long-lasting results, makes Radiesse a popular option for our clients.

Radiesse differs from other popular dermal fillers in a few key ways. When you get Radiesse in Burlington at Cosmedica Aesthetics, your skin will experience the benefits of calcium hydroxylapatite or CaHA. Other dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), making Radiesse a unique option for our clients.

With CaHA, our clients see immediate initial improvements to lost volume and full results that can last for up to 2 years! Radiesse accomplishes these long-lasting results by triggering your body’s natural healing process to promote new elastin and collagen growth over time.

Getting Radiesse in Burlington can be a great option if you’re someone who’s looking for a long-lasting dermal filler that promotes new collagen production. This specific dermal filler also targets loose skin around your face, arms, and neck, tightening the areas to give you a more youthful appearance.

There is no one size fits all approach to dermal filler. That’s why we pride ourselves in having an experienced team of nurse injectors. During your consultation, you’ll discuss your personal needs and goals to help us determine which dermal filler is best for you.

Yes, there are some things to keep in mind before your first Radiesse session at Cosmedica Aesthetics.

• Come to your appointment with clean skin. You’ll want to abstain from wearing perfumes, lotions, or applying any makeup the day of your session.
