Radiesse is made up of tiny smooth calcium Hydroxyapatite (CaHA) micro spheres which form a scaffold of sorts on which the body’s own collagen can grow. Treatment of thin hands with accentuated veins, results in an immediate plumping of the skin during the first three months, along with extended correction for up to twelve to twenty-four months as new tissue regenerates. Good candidates for Radiesse injections of the hands include men and women who are looking to improve the appearance of aging hands. Patients should also be physically healthy and have realistic expectations.

Radiesse treatment of the hands can take anywhere from thirty minutes to an hour to complete. A local and or topical anesthetic may be used, after which the Radiesse is injected beneath the skin using a very fine needle. After the procedure, some minor inflammation and swelling can occur, though this usually clears up within two to four days. Patients may also experience some temporary mild discomfort and/or tenderness. Most patients are able to immediately resume their normal activities.

Radiesse, a soft tissue injectable filler, is able to improve the obvious signs of aging to the hands and restore a healthy youthful appearance. Cosmetic patients can typically expect the results of Radiesse treatments of the hands to last one year. Occasional touch-ups can be performed as needed. The potential complications associated with Radiesse tend to be minor and may include side effects like swelling, redness, edema, pain, itching, discoloration and tenderness.
