Areas of Application for Radiesse

Radiesse is versatile and can be used to treat various wrinkles, including nasolabial folds, marionette lines, cheek wrinkles, and chin wrinkles. It is particularly effective for contouring the jawline and zygomatic arch. Additionally, Radiesse can be used to rejuvenate the back of the hands with long-lasting results. We are happy to provide individual consultations in our practice at Alstertor in Hamburg to discuss how Radiesse can benefit you.

Radiesse vs. Hyaluronic Acid - The Differences

Both Radiesse and hyaluronic acid are popular fillers for wrinkle treatment. Radiesse is particularly suited for slightly deeper wrinkles due to its composition and typically offers longer-lasting results—about twice as long as hyaluronic acid in most cases. However, synthetic hyaluronic acid, which is commonly used in injections, has a more natural composition, making it a more tolerable solution for some individuals.

How Treatment with Radiesse Works

Consultation for a Treatment with Radiesse

We place great emphasis on personalized care. A detailed consultation is essential before any skin and wrinkle treatment with Radiesse. During this session, we discuss the possibilities of the method, explore alternative treatments, and assess whether Radiesse is the best option for you. We also check for any individual intolerances that might make Radiesse treatment less advisable.

Uncomplicated Injections

The actual wrinkle filling with Radiesse is straightforward and usually takes no longer than 15-20 minutes. The injection is largely painless, but for patients who are particularly sensitive to pain, we can anesthetize the treatment area with a cream.

After the Treatment

We continue to provide support after the Radiesse treatment. It's possible that the treated area may be slightly more sensitive or swollen for two to three days. These symptoms are normal and should not cause concern. If a rare allergic reaction occurs, we are here to assist with the appropriate treatment.

How Long Does Radiesse Last?

The effects of Radiesse typically last at least 12 months. However, the duration can vary depending on how quickly your body metabolizes the calcium hydroxyapatite. Individuals with a high metabolism may experience a slightly shorter duration.

Costs of Treatment with Radiesse

At Traumpraxis Hamburg, we offer Radiesse treatments starting from €349*. The exact cost depends on the amount of gel required, and we are happy to provide personalized advice during your consultation.

Risks of Radiesse

As with any injection, Radiesse treatment can lead to some skin reactions, such as increased sensitivity and slight swelling at the injection sites. These effects usually subside after a few days. Radiesse should not be used by individuals with bleeding disorders or certain intolerances. During our initial consultation, we will thoroughly assess whether Radiesse is suitable for you.
