Radiesse Butt Lift
What is the Radiesse Butt Lift?
Radiesse is an injectable dermal filler traditionally used to address moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. It is also used to correct volume loss in the back of the hands. Recently, aesthetic specialists have found that it’s effective in adding volume and contour to flat, saggy, or droopy posteriors.
The active ingredient in Radiesse is synthetic but biocompatible calcium hydroxylapatite. As an injectable, it comes in the form of microspheres suspended in a water gel. For a Radiesse butt lift, the filler is injected under the skin of the buttocks where collagen is produced.
The results of the treatment are both immediate and progressive. This means you get an initial lift provided by the gel component of Radiesse. However, as the gel is absorbed in the body and the particles of Radiesse are left, the second more long-lasting result kicks in.Radiesse stimulates the production of collagen – the substance that gives the skin its strength and elasticity. In effect, Radiesse encourages the skin to produce more of its own filler.Because of this collagen-stimulating characteristic of this dermal filler, the results of a Radiesse butt lift can last anywhere from 2 years up to 5 years.
Are You a Good Candidate for a Radiesse Butt Lift?
If you are looking for a non-surgical treatment solution to your flat, sagging, or droopy buttocks, the Radiesse butt lift is a great option for you. If you do not have enough excess fat in a donor region in your body, much like what is done for a Brazilian butt lift, Radiesse is also for you.Additionally, Radiesse butt lift candidates should be:In an overall healthy condition.Able to maintain a fairly stable healthy weight.Willing to commit to multiple treatment sessions. For Radiesse, some patients may require 3 treatments spaced 3 to 4 month apart to get the results they desire.While a Radiesse may give you an immediate lift, the subsequent results due to an increase in collagen in the buttocks area will become apparent gradually. If you want instant full results, this treatment may not be for.
