Answer: Radiesse is not painful
Any fillers injected may cause discomfort. When Radiesse was first used there was a delayed pain after a minute or so. For some time, most doctors have been mixing the Radiesse with a small amount of local anesthetic and it makes it a comfortable procedure for most patients. We offer a numbing medicine first, that is applied to the skin prior to the injections, and that helps minimize the needle prick sensation. Radiesse is not used in the lips and avoided under thin skin areas such as the eyelids by many doctors.

Answer: Radiesse injections Radiesse is firmer than most fillers, so it’s a frequent fix for deep grooves and to enhance bony contours. This product typically lasts anywhere between 12 and 24 months. Radiesse is now virtually painless because it is mixed with lidocaine which numbs the areas as it is injected. Many patients even report that Radiesse injections are less painful than Botox! But buyer beware--injection techniques can vary. It’s the art and science of what doctors do, and it’s important to choose your doctor wisely. I suggest finding a physician with plenty of experience using this product.

Answer: Radiesse for facial wrinkles and augmentation
In most cases Radiesse can be injected comfortably. We can mix it with a little bit of lidocaine prior to injection, and that combined with topical numbing medication usually makes it a pretty comfortable procedure. The key is to have someone inject it with experience and good judgement so that it is injected properly and chosen for the right areas of the face- in some cases, a different product like Juvederm or Restylane may be a better option depending on the particular area of concern.

Answer: Pain with Radiesse Injection
All fillers are associated with variable amounts of discomfort associated wtih injection. There are several ways around this. First you can use topical numbing medications or in some cases even a nerve block. Secondly, the products are frequently being combined with numbing medicine in the injection making the process very tolerable. The newest versions of Restylane and Juvederm do contain lidocaine in the them. In the case of Radiesse, most doctors now are addiing their own lidocaine to it before injection.
