Will the nose continue to define with the formation of the body’s on collagen for example in the top and bridge?

Thank you for your question. Radiesse typically lasts 2 years. A touch up is recommended in usually 1 year if needed for maintenance. I hope this information helps.

Thank you for your question! Radiesse typically lasts about 1-2 years. The rate at which it is absorbed depends on many factors including the location it was placed and the patient's metabolism. In the nose, patients usually come back for a touch up every 6-12 months.  The amount of collagen the body creates is no more than the amount of product injected and does not continue to form, so you will periodically need these touch ups. I usually like to start my patients with a reversible Hyaluronic acid product such as Juvederm to see if the patient is happy with the result, and then for the next session move on to a more permanent product such as Radiesse or Bellafill. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and concerns and see what is the best treatment for you!

Radiesse Injections to the face last anywhere from a year to a year and a half. Depending on location of injection and quantity duration may vary a bit. In my experience Radiesse last less than what the manufacturing company claims so I would have touch ups scheduled sooner than a year.

Radiesse is a volumizer that stimulates collagen over time. Its longevity is improved in areas that do not have movement such as the nose. 1 to 2 years duration is common. The contour will gradually decrease without adding new definition.

The longevity of Radiesse in the nose can vary among individuals, but generally, it lasts around 12 to 18 months. However, individual results may differ, and factors like metabolism and injection technique can influence the duration. It’s important to consult with your healthcare provider for guidance based on your specific case.
