New York City dermatologist explains the benefits of Radiesse

Radiesse is an FDA-approved wrinkle filler that can provide a "lunchtime lift." Patients can visit Dr. Shelton in New York City and in less than 20 minutes, be back to their day with an improved, more youthful appearance.

Radiesse is an injectable that is used to reduce the appearance of deep folds on the face, including those around the mouth. It allows men and women to turn back the clock and look as young as they feel. Many patients visit their dermatologist at The New York Aesthetic Consultants to ask about non-surgical procedures that provides fast, effective results and is safe and affordable. Radiesse is often the answer. Dr. Shelton personally mixes the Radiesse with local anesthetic so as the Radiesse is injected it’s more comfortable.

Radiesse has a number of benefits. Although it is similar to other dermal filler injectables such as Juvéderm and Restylane, it lasts considerably longer. Many patients who undergo Radiesse injections will enjoy a more rejuvenated, fresher appearance for anywhere from nine to 18 months. Many other hyaluronic acid fillers last three to six months before reinjection is required to maintain the results.

Radiesse is also great for contouring and sculpting the face as it can add more volume than the competing fillers. It is commonly used for moderate folds, and can be utilized in conjunction with other fillers and injectables such as Botox. Dr. Shelton can layer these fillers to provide patients with a “liquid facelift” in just one visit.

Most patients are good candidates for Radiesse injections. A consultation visit is recommended for new patients who want to learn about dermal fillers and how they can assist in reducing or softening the signs of aging on the skin.

Patients who live in the New York City area who are interested in learning about injectables such as Radiesse are encouraged to schedule a visit with a board certified dermatologist at The New York Aesthetic Consultants to find out if Radiesse or any other fillers are best for their specific needs. Dr. Shelton and his team can help individuals learn about the ways in which their skin can be rejuvenated and appear more youthful in just one visit to his state-of-the-art dermatological practice.
