Radiesse

Today, men and women can gain an immense benefit from the development and implementation of a daily skin care regimen tailored to their specific needs. Modern aesthetic medicine contains an array of topical products to nourish and pamper the skin. Such products, while beneficial, are not completely successful at addressing all of the signs of aging. One thing that cannot be accomplished with topical products is the restoration of lost volume.

Age brings with it certain biochemical changes. These changes affect our skin directly because the production of substances like collagen, elastin, and Hyaluronic acid slow to a crawl, and the connective tissues on which our skin relies for support thrive on these elements. As the skin changes, we begin to notice lines and wrinkles as well as sagging skin.

Wrinkle reduction can be achieved in a number of ways thanks to advanced cosmetic dermatology. In our office in Mountain View, CA, we help patients from San Jose, Los Altos, and other areas regain more vibrant, youthful contours using precise treatment. In the area of dermal fillers, Radiesse® Volumizing Filler may be used as a sole treatment or in conjunction with other fillers or anti-aging solutions.

Where many other fillers have a base of Hyaluronic acid, Radiesse® Volumizing Filler replenishes the skin using tiny microspheres of calcium. When injected into the skin, these microscopic beads facilitate the rebuilding of the skin’s foundation. This filler stimulates the production of collagen so, in addition to immediately plumping lines, Radiesse® Volumizing Filler continues to work for several months. Our patients may experience results lasting as long as twelve months.

Radiesse® treatment at The Menkes Clinic and Surgery Center takes only a few minutes to complete. Using a fine gauge needle and ultra gentle touch, Dr. Menkes or Dr. Soohoo administer this solution into lines and folds, rebuilding definition and a supple appearance. Radiesse® Volumizing Filler is also an excellent alternative to more invasive procedures in many situations, adding volume to the cheeks, nose, or chin for more beautiful contours.

Radiesse® Volumizing Filler is one of many on the market today, and one of several used in our cosmetic dermatology practice. Though there are several wonderful characteristics to this versatile filler, we recognize that it is not the answer to every sign of aging. Every one of our patients is unique and will receive care based on his or her needs and wants. One thing is for sure. The results that are achieved with our expert technique are beautifully natural so no one will know but you.
