As time progresses, even the most well cared for skin will begin to exhibit signs of aging. Natural loss of collagen, hormone fluctuations and changes in facial bone structure can all contribute to the growth of lines, wrinkles and sagging skin. Years ago, the only effective way to reverse this process was to undergo cosmetic surgery. These procedures were invasive, expensive and required extensive down time afterward. As with any surgery, there were also potential health risks. This made a return to youth difficult for many people to achieve. Thankfully, innovations in technology and medicine have brought new techniques and procedures that are nonsurgical, minimally invasive and far less risky than conventional cosmetic surgery. At Harley Institute Institute, we provide many modern anti-aging solutions in Atlanta, Georgia. One of our most effective and popular techniques for getting back youthful skin is Radiesse injections. Have you been wondering how treatments work, or have some interest in beginning your own Radiesse Treatments in Atlanta, Georgia? Dr. Harley and her team of experienced specialists have been using Radiesse to turn back time for Atlanta area clients for years. Here are just a few reasons why Radiesse might be right for you as well.Â
Radiesse is a dermal filler created from calcium containing microspheres. These spheres create a scaffold beneath the skin that immediately plump and restore skin, effectively erasing fine lines and wrinkles in the area of injection. Not only does Radiesse provide immediate volume, but it stimulates natural collagen production around the microspheres for long lasting results.Â
Because Radiesse treatments are minimally invasive, there’s no reason to take time off work, or prepare for long healing times. You’ll also avoid the risks associated with surgical procedures and enjoy a natural looking, long lasting youthful appearance. It’s like getting cosmetic surgery on your lunch break. Best of all, most patients between 35 and 60 report up to 80% improvement within hours of treatment. Save time and money by investing in Radiesse treatments and get the results you’ve been dreaming of.Â
Patients are given a topical or local anesthetic to numb the area before injection. Afterwards, an injection of Radiesse will be accurately placed using a very fine needle. There may be a small amount of swelling in areas around the injection site, but should quickly calm after applying an ice pack. It is recommended to avoid excessive touching of the facial area or makeup application for 24 to 48 hours. Unlike cosmetic surgery, there is no down time and patients can continue with their normal activities immediately after treatment. Because the natural materials used in Radiesse, your body will slowly absorb the microspheres after time, and some patients choose to continue injections once a year to maintain and maximize treatment results.Â
