While many people think of aging as merely getting wrinkles, it is also commonly associated with the loss of volume in the face. Skin loses collagen and elasticity as we age. Facial features once accentuated by fullness can become marked by more severe contours and thin skin. Dr. Karaca is able to help these patients by adding youthful volume to the face through Radiesse® injections. Radiesse® Fillers are an ideal way of achieving the desired result. The procedure can be performed with minimal to no downtime and without the expense associated with surgery.

• Fillers are commonly used to fill in deep smile lines and the lips.
• Facial fillers can be expected to last six to twelve months or longer.
• The procedure is short and most patients return to their normal routine immediately following the treatment.

See our Special Prices on Radiesse below.

The most popular of facial fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. Dr. Karaca uses the Juvéderm®, Radiesse®, and Artefill® families of fillers. HA occurs naturally in the skin and these building blocks deplete as we get older. When injected into the skin the HA attracts water to the site resulting in a look that is soft and natural. HA fillers are reversible, have a low risk of side-effects and the results are long lasting.

While facial fillers are a safe solution for someone wanting to "freshen" their look, the outcome greatly depends on the experience and skill of the injector. It is important to make sure the person providing your Radiesse® treatment has been properly trained and has experience treating the desired area. Dr. Karaca is highly trained in the art of fillers. His expert knowledge of facial symmetry and balance allow him to produce natural, youthful results.

TOP QUESTIONS - FACIAL

How long will it last?
Normally 6 months to 1 year, but every patient will experience varying results.

Where can it be used?
Radiesse® Fillers are more commonly used in the lower two thirds of the face.

How long does the procedure take?
Approximately 20 minutes, start to finish.

Will there be any swelling or bruising?
You do run the risk of slight bruising at the Radiesse® injection site; we recommend that you discontinue the use of non-prescription blood thinners before and after injection.* There may also be some mild swelling that can last 2-7 days.

How much Radiesse® do I need?
Everyone is different; the doctor will help determine how much product is necessary to achieve your desired results.

Is there a possibility of an adverse reaction?
There is a less than 1% chance of an adverse reaction. Hyaluronic acid is a substance already found in the human body which greatly reduces the risk of rejection.

Will it hurt?
Most patients opt for a local anesthetic to avoid any discomfort with Radiesse® treatment and injections.

Is it reversible?
Yes. There is an agent that can dissolve hyaluronic acid facial filler products.

How will I look when the Radiesse® dissolves?
You can look the same as you did before you had the Radiesse® injections, but some people will begin to regenerate their own collagen as the filler disappears and see a more permanent, natural and youthful look.
