Radiesse at Clarity Acne & Aesthetics

At Clarity Acne & Aesthetics, we believe in offering more than just temporary fixes—we deliver scientifically advanced solutions for long-term beauty and skin health. Radiesse, one of the most sophisticated collagen-stimulating fillers available, is part of our curated suite of injectables designed to lift, sculpt, and rejuvenate your appearance with results that last.

Led by Deborah Quinn, DNP, a double board-certified dermatology nurse practitioner with over 18 years of dermatology and aesthetic experience, our practice takes a medical-meets-artistry approach to injectables. Whether you are looking to restore volume, refine facial contours, or improve skin texture, Radiesse offers a unique dual-action approach, providing immediate volumizing and long-term collagen stimulation.

Not Your Average Filler

What is Radiesse?

Radiesse is a unique dermal filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse works in two powerful ways: it instantly restores volume and lift while also stimulating your skin to produce natural collagen over time.

This makes Radiesse an ideal option for patients seeking a more structured, long-lasting solution to facial aging, especially when loss of definition and firmness is a concern. At Clarity Acne & Aesthetics, we also utilize Radiesse Hyperdilute for advanced skin rejuvenation, improving tone, texture, and elasticity in areas beyond the face, such as the neck, décolletage, and hands.

The Subtle Lift

What is the Radiesse procedure like?

At Clarity Acne & Aesthetics, every Radiesse treatment is a precision-driven, personalized experience designed to enhance your natural beauty. From the moment you arrive to the final touch, we focus on creating an experience that is comfortable, refined, and medically sound.

Your Radiesse Treatment Day, Step by Step:

1. Personalized Consultation & Facial Assessment

Your experience begins with an in-depth consultation with one of our certified nurse practitioners, where we carefully analyze your facial structure, volume loss, and skin quality. This allows us to create a customized Radiesse plan designed to lift, contour, and stimulate collagen where you need it most.

2. Treatment Mapping & Comfort Prep

Once your personalized plan is created, we map precise injection points to ensure symmetry and balance. We then apply a topical anesthetic to​​ keep you relaxed and comfortable and Radiesse itself contains lidocaine for additional comfort.

3. Precision Injection Technique

Using advanced techniques, we will carefully place Radiesse using fine needles or cannulas depending on the area and depth needed. The filler is placed in strategic layers to lift, contour, and restore youthful structure, whether we are defining the jawline, lifting the cheeks, or softening deep folds.

4. Artistic Shaping & Refinement

After the injections, your nurse practitioner will gently massage the treated areas, ensuring seamless integration and natural flow with your facial contours. Before you leave, you'll see instant improvements in volume and shape.

From Wrinkles to Volume Loss

What concerns does Radiesse address?

Radiesse is particularly well-suited for addressing deeper volume loss, structural support, and areas that need lift and definition. It is a go-to solution for:

  • Deep smile lines (nasolabial folds)
  • Marionette lines (lines running from corners of the mouth to the chin)
  • Jawline contouring and definition
  • Chin enhancement
  • Cheek and midface volume restoration
  • Aging, thinning skin on the neck, chest, and hands (via Radiesse Hyperdilute)
  • Mild to moderate skin laxity

Where Radiesse Works

What areas of the body can Radiesse address?

Radiesse is incredibly versatile and can be used in several key areas to restore structure and firmness, including:

  • Lower face (jawline, chin, marionette lines)
  • Midface (cheeks, deep folds)
  • Neck and décolletage (with Radiesse Hyperdilute)
  • Hands (for volume loss and skin thinning)

During your consultation, we will evaluate your facial structure and aging concerns to design a strategic plan for natural-looking enhancement.

Instant Volume to Lasting Collagen

What are the benefits of Radiesse?

Radiesse provides immediate lift and contour, restoring youthful volume and shape. But the true advantage lies in its ability to stimulate collagen production, meaning your skin’s own natural support system is rebuilt over time, resulting in firmer, smoother, more resilient skin. This makes Radiesse a cosmetic solution and a skin-health enhancer, ideal for those wanting lasting beauty that evolves naturally.

You Deserve This

Am I a candidate for Radiesse?

Radiesse is an excellent choice for men and women seeking non-surgical facial and skin rejuvenation, particularly those experiencing volume loss, deeper lines, or skin laxity. You may be an ideal candidate if you:

  • Want to restore facial contours and definition
  • Are looking for longer-lasting filler results
  • Want to improve skin firmness and elasticity
  • Are interested in collagen stimulation for long-term improvement
  • Prefer a minimally invasive alternative to surgery

Radiesse is not typically recommended for lip augmentation or very superficial lines, as it is designed for deeper placement and structural support. During your consultation, we’ll ensure Radiesse is the right solution based on your skin type, goals, and medical history.

From Treatment to Glow

Radiesse Recovery

Radiesse treatments involve minimal downtime, though you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects typically resolve within a few days. We recommend avoiding intense exercise, alcohol, and excessive heat exposure for 24-48 hours post-treatment to ensure optimal healing and integration.

Because we use advanced dermatology-based techniques, the risk of complications is minimized, and results are smooth and natural.

From First Look to Long-Term Glow

Radiesse Results

Following treatment with Radiesse, you will see immediate improvement in volume and contours. Over the following months, as collagen production is stimulated, you’ll notice progressive improvement in skin quality, firmness, and smoothness.

Radiesse results typically last 12 to 18 months, but many patients enjoy longer-lasting improvements due to enhanced collagen support. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled as needed to prolong and enhance results.
