Age is not an issue
What it depends on is where the wrinkles are, what you want to accomplish, and what your anatomy is. So get an evaluation and see first hand what your options are.

You are not too old.
Hi! People of different ages can get great results with fillers like Radiesse. In fact, in our plastic surgery practice in New York City, we occasionally will use fillers on someone who might be too old for a facelift.
If you are concerned about collagen deposition, you can have Juvederm injections, which don't rely on collagen deposition.

Radiesse and Injectable Fillers
Dear Lisa
Fillers for facial contouring are an excellent all persons of all ages. The results that can be achieved are very dependent on the person perforoming the injections.

The fillers can be used on there own, in combination with Botox or combinations of fillers such as Radiesse and Restylane for various areas of the face for safe and long lasting results.
With Warm Regards...

No Age Restriction
Radiesse is a great dermal filler. I tend to think it is much better in those with thinner skin, such as older patients, because it is injected close to the bone. As opposed to hyaluronic fillers which are injected much more superficially. There's no age restriction on any of the fillers.

No age restriction
There is no age restriction for Radiesse injections. Actually the older the patient the more the soft tissue deficiency. However I really like Sculptra when a large volume is needed.
