Radiesse is best used in Cheeks, Smile lines, and Jawline
Radiesse is made up of naturally found bone minerals (calcium and phosphate) and so it is a thicker, firmer material which should be placed in thick skin or directly over bone for the best results.

What Are the Best Areas to Have Radiesse

One of the more popular places Radiesse is applied to is the at the nasolabial folds. Results are instant, and almost as if an eraser was used to make those lines disappear. Radiesse can also be applied to areas on the chin, jawline, marionette lines, and smile lines.

What the the best areas for Radiesse injections?
I use Radiesse to shape the cheeks, chin and jaw line. It does work well in the nasolabila folds however due to its thick nature it sometimes can be seen when patients smile and for that reason, I prefer Perlane in the nasolabial folds.

I inject Radiesse in patients with flat cheek bones to avoid cheek implant surgery. It is also very effective in filling dents on the lower jaw bone to camouflage depression in front of the jowls.

I have used Radiesse extensively for a couple years.
1.) Radiesse lasts about a year.
