An Ideal Volumizer
Replenishing lost volume and providing lift is the key to diminishing the appearance of facial wrinkles and folds. There are two physical characteristics that dictate the ability of a filler to provide volume and lift – Viscosity and Elasticity (G’).
A recent study shows that RADIESSE® Volumizing Filler demonstrates a higher level of Viscosity and Elasticity (G’) than leading hyaluronic acids (HAs), making it an ideal filler for volumization.6
Viscosity
Viscosity measures the ability of a filler to withstand a force that is applied to it. RADIESSE Volumizing Filler was designed with a high viscosity so that it:
- Remains in the place it is injected and will not spread or splay into the surrounding tissue
- Enables the injector to visualize the final result immediately after injection
Elasticity (G’)
Elasticity (G’) measures the ability of a filler to push back against a force that is applied to it. RADIESSE Volumizing Filler was designed with a high elasticity (G’) so that it:
- Is able to counteract forces that cause an aged look, like gravity or skin laxity
- Provides lift
