Cheek Augmentation - Radiesse vs Voluma?

Dear JBUK,Thank you for your question. Radiesse lasts 1-2 years and Voluma lasts up to 2 years. The main difference is that they are two completely different materials. Radiesse is calcium hydroxy-appetite, which is a substance found in bone. It is radio opaque like bone meaning if you ever needed an xray on the face, you would be able to see the filler there. We don't have an ability to dissolve Radiesse if we want to. The substance of Voluma is hyaluronic acid which is a substance found in the deep skin. We have a medication that can dissolve Voluma, making it a safer product.If you have never had your cheeks done before, I would try a reversible product like Juvederm (also a hyaluronic acid.) See if you like the look and feel and then when it is time to repeat the treatment, you can choose a product that is meant to last longer.Good luck!

Thank you for your Q.Either  Radiesse® or Voluma® is a good choice for augmentation of the cheeks. I prefer  Radiesse®Dr karamanoukian
