Radiesse is the filler of choice for marionette lies. Radiesse restores lost volume in this area and can smooth out the jaw line. The procedure involves injecting a compound of calcium hydroxyl apatite microspheres that are suspended in a carboxymethylcellulose gel. Calcium and phosphate ions, naturally occurring in our bodies, primarily make up the calcium hydroxyl apatite particles. The gel contains an organic compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, as well as glycerin and sterile water. Thin connective tissue forms around the microspheres so that the micro spheres act as a filler that remains permanently implanted at the site location. |
