Does Radiesse really dissolve within a few months, and is 30% of mineral and 70% carrier gel that dissolves within 12 weeks?

Thank you for your questions! Radiesse does last longer than most HA fillers because as the gel it is suspended gets absorbed, your body is making its own collagen around the Radiesse microspheres to help add volume and structure. Patient's usually do require touch ups about once a year to help maintain the look.  Radiesse would be a good choice for help build your jaw line, good luck!

Victoria,Radiesse is a good choice for augmenting your chin and jawline.  The carrier gel molecules induce your body's own collagen production which stays after the gel is absorbed.  Generlaly I see the product lasting around 12 months.Good luck.Dr Taranow

Actually about 57% of Radiesse is the calcium particle. the carrier produces correction, the particles induce your collagen formation and then they dissolve leaving only your collagen producing the correction. it should last anywhere from 12-14 months and is the best filler for what you desire but be sure to see an experienced board certified dermatologist
