Ok most doctors here are saying that when a patient complains that they see no results,most doctors here will respond that they probably need more than one syringe,then why is everyone charging so much for one syringe of radiesse??i think the prices are absurd.

Answer: Cost of Radiesse and Amount Needed
I am not sure what price your doctor quoted you, but please keep in mind that each syringe costs the doctor a good amount. So not only is there a material cost fee for the patient, but a treatment (and expertise) fee for having the injections done. Some doctors charge by the syringe and some charge by the areas treated. Depending on the patient's areas of concern and the involvement of those areas, often times one syringe is not enough to get a noticeably improved result. There are a lot of excellent board-certified dermatologists or facial plastic surgeons who are experienced injectors and very fair with there pricing. Good luck!

Answer: Is on syringe of Radiesse enough?
The majority of my Radiesse injections are typically one syringe per patient. However, with significant facial volume loss, occasionally more than one syringe is needed to get good results. The dramatic before and after results you typically see posted on web sites are often from injecting three or more of the 1.5 cc Radiesse syringes. My own before and after pictures are posted on my web site (the link is below) showing my face after injection of four full sized syringes of Radiesse. It is always important for the doctor to make sure the patient has the right expectations for the treatment that is planned. To answer your question about the cost of Radiesse injections, they can vary dramatically from one area to another. Because I am a member of the medical education faculty for Radiesse, I frequently have patients flying into Burlington, Vermont for treatment due to my expertise as well as lower prices.
