Radiesse on Actual Cheekbone? (photo)

Is this a usual procedure to place the Radiesse on the bone itself? I wanted the filler because of the hollow look to my face. After 3 vials and 7 weeks these are the results.

Radiesse placed near bone

Radiesse is best placed just over the bone (periosteal) or at the level of the deep dermis. It could take more than 3 syringes to give you the desired result and to give you more of a full face treatment you may wish to consider Sculptra as an alternative. It's always best to follow-up with your provider.

Creating a youthful, fuller demension to the face

I have had many patients from their 30's and up looking for a more fuller/rested look. Radiesse injected along the cheekbones can soften and define the face without looking over-exaggerated. The swelling will be visible the first day or two but disappears after that. Beautiful cheekbones are created to help direct the eye and skin in a new direction. Radiesse works with your own collagen and can last up to a year! Also, because it is injected deep within the dermis,... more

Radiesse for cheeck enhancement

Radiesse is one of my favorite fillers for cheek enhancement. It is a thicker filler than the hyaluronic acids and often will provide more lift, but needs to be injected deeply for best results. It can be injected in the fat or over the bone, but should not be injected in the dermis, because this will result in lumps. It is also a very nice filler for correcting jowls and contouring the jawline. Because this product cannot be dissolved (unlike the hyaluronic acids),... more

Radiesse for facial volume augmentation

Radiesse is a deep soft tissue filler which works well for volume augmentation. I typically place it on the facial bone plane areas to give the best results.

The deeper the filler, the more product it takes to get a result.

Radiesse can be used on the bone and probably lasts a long time there. However, because it is so deep, more porduct is going to be required to get a similar result with the product in a more shallow position.

Restoring facial volume with Radiesse

Radiesse is a deeper filler which is often placed close to the bone to generate more volume and create a much better lifting effect for sagging skin. As other physicians have recommended, using Radiesse for the lower face would be of benefit for you. Either Radiesse or Sculptra would be excellent for this.
