Radiesse is an injectable filler that is perfect for filling out thin lips, and ideal for smoothing out deep facial creases. Radiesse is a synthetic form of calcium hydroxylapatite, a mineral found in our bones. While it has been wildly used in medicine for over two decades as prosthetic implants in dental, facial and orthopedic surgeries, Radiesse is becoming more and more common in cosmetic enhancements. Suspended in an aqueous gel, Radiesse stays soft and supple and feels very natural under the skin. Because it has the same properties as calcium hydroxylapatite, it lasts much longer than collagen-type implants. In fact, the injections can last a lifetime for many, removing the need for the quarterly touch ups for collagen and other injectable fillers.

If you're ready for firmer skin, schedule your Radiesse consultation with Dr. Schafer today by calling his San Diego office at this toll free number (888) 377-5187 or you can schedule an appointment online.
