Radiesse Biostimulation: Revitalize Your Body with Non-Surgical Treatments at LUX ~ A Medical Spa in Bluffton & Hilton Head, SC
At LUX ~ A Medical Spa in Bluffton, SC, and Hilton Head, SC, we are proud to offer Radiesse Biostimulation for more than just facial rejuvenation. While Radiesse is widely known for its incredible ability to restore volume and smooth wrinkles in the face, it can also be used to rejuvenate areas of the body, including the knees, arms, abdomen, and buttocks. This innovative, non-surgical treatment stimulates collagen production in the skin, resulting in tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
As a clinic led by Dr. Frederick Weniger, a board-certified plastic surgeon, and Dr. Carmen Traywick, a dermatologist, we offer expert, customized treatments to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Whether you’re looking to reduce the appearance of sagging skin or restore volume to certain areas, Radiesse Biostimulation can provide long-lasting, natural-looking results. Read on to learn more about how Radiesse can rejuvenate areas of your body beyond just the face.
What is Radiesse Biostimulation?
Radiesse is a dermal filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel. It is injected into areas of the skin where volume loss and skin laxity have occurred. Not only does Radiesse immediately restore volume and smooth fine lines, but it also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, which improves the skin’s texture and elasticity over time.
When used in areas of the body like the knees, arms, abdomen, and buttocks, Radiesse provides both immediate results and long-term skin rejuvenation. By stimulating collagen growth deep within the skin, Radiesse helps restore firmness, reduce sagging, and improve skin texture, resulting in smoother, tighter skin.
How Does Radiesse Work in the Knees, Arms, Abdomen, and Buttocks?
While Radiesse is often used for facial rejuvenation, it has a wide range of applications for other areas of the body. Here’s how Radiesse Biostimulation works in different regions:
- Knees: As we age, the skin around the knees can lose its firmness and elasticity, resulting in sagging or crepey skin. Radiesse can be injected into the knee area to help restore volume and tighten the skin. By stimulating collagen production, Radiesse helps smooth out wrinkles and creases around the knees, creating a more youthful, contoured appearance.
- Arms: Sagging skin on the upper arms, often referred to as “bat wings,” is a common concern for many individuals. Radiesse is an excellent option for patients looking to improve skin laxity and restore volume in the arms. By injecting Radiesse, we can stimulate collagen production and firm the skin, giving your arms a smoother, more toned appearance.
- Abdomen: The abdomen can lose firmness and elasticity due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or natural aging. Radiesse can be used to address loose or sagging skin in this area, especially for patients who have experienced post-pregnancy changes. The treatment helps restore volume, smooth out the skin, and promote collagen production, creating a firmer, more youthful look in the abdominal area.
- Buttocks: For a non-surgical approach to enhancing the appearance of the buttocks, Radiesse is a fantastic solution. As we age, the skin around the buttocks can lose elasticity, leading to sagging or a loss of volume. Radiesse can be strategically injected to lift and shape the buttocks, enhancing its contour while stimulating collagen production to maintain long-lasting results.
Why Choose Radiesse Biostimulation for the Body?
Here are some of the key benefits of Radiesse Biostimulation for the knees, arms, abdomen, and buttocks:
Non-Surgical Skin Tightening and Volume Restoration:
Radiesse provides a non-invasive way to restore volume and tighten skin in areas where sagging or loose skin may be a concern. This is ideal for patients who want to avoid surgery but still wish to achieve visible, natural-looking results.
Long-Lasting Results:
The effects of Radiesse are long-lasting, with results typically lasting 12 to 18 months. As it stimulates collagen production, you’ll continue to see improvements in skin texture and elasticity long after the initial treatment.
Stimulates Collagen Production:
Radiesse not only provides immediate volume but also triggers collagen production deep within the skin. This biostimulatory effect means that, over time, your skin will become firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance, without relying on synthetic materials.
Minimal Downtime:
Since Radiesse is a minimally invasive treatment, there is very little downtime associated with it. Most patients can return to their regular activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
Targeted Treatment for Multiple Areas:
Radiesse can be used to target a variety of body areas where volume loss and skin laxity occur. Whether you want to rejuvenate the skin on your knees, arms, abdomen, or buttocks, Radiesse Biostimulation can address multiple concerns with a single treatment.
What to Expect During and After Your Radiesse Treatment
At LUX A Medical Spa, your Radiesse Biostimulation treatment will begin with a consultation to assess your concerns and discuss your aesthetic goals. Based on your needs, our skilled providers will strategically inject Radiesse into the treatment areas. The procedure typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.
After your treatment, you may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising in the treated areas, but these effects are generally temporary and subside within a few days. You can return to your daily activities right away, though we recommend avoiding intense physical activity for the first 24-48 hours to allow the treatment to settle.
How Many Radiesse Treatments Are Needed?
Most patients see visible improvement after just one treatment. However, depending on the area and your specific goals, you may need additional sessions to achieve optimal results. Radiesse’s effects last for up to 12 to 18 months, so maintenance treatments can be scheduled as needed to keep your skin looking youthful and rejuvenated.
