Radiesse

A duração dos resultados do Radiesse é, em média, cerca de 2 anos. No entanto, o estilo de vida da pessoa tem também impacto na durabilidade deste procedimento, assim como os cuidados com a pele que tem no seu dia a dia.

Os cuidado a ter após o tratamento com Radiesse são:

• Do not touch the treated area for 4 hours;
• Avoid sleeping under the treated area for 3 nights;
• If a bruise appears, apply arnica gel several times a day (can be purchased at any pharmacy);
• Do not do any facial treatments for 4 weeks. After that period, you may have other facial treatments, except laser treatments;
• Avoid strenuous exercises and those that cause the face to heat up for 2 weeks.

After treatment, the skin may become inflamed and sensitive around the injection site, which improves within 24-48 hours. Allergic reactions to the product, such as redness and itching, rarely occur and can be treated with topical anti-inflammatory drugs or oral tablets, as directed by your doctor.

It is a procedure that does not require much time for recovery. However, it is recommended to use sunscreen and avoid excessive exposure to the sun, as well as to avoid intense physical activities during the recovery period (day of the procedure). The day after the procedure, normal activities can be resumed, and no further rest is required. However, avoid strenuous exercises and those that cause the face to heat up.

The procedure is contraindicated for patients with allergy and hypersensitivity to the biostimulators' active ingredient, as well as for pregnant and lactating women, people with acute infectious diseases, skin inflammation, cancers, tendency to keloids, tendency to bleed, and some blood diseases (blood clotting), and immune system diseases.

There are other treatments that can be complementary to this one, among them we distinguish the following:

Anti-wrinkle creams

Anti-wrinkle creams fight aging and moisturize the skin. They are divided into cosmetics, dermocosmetics, and nutricosmetics.

• Cocosmetics: superficial action, they act to moisturize and protect the skin from the action of wind, heat, and pollution;
• Dermocosmetics: these act in a deeper way, and have more powerful actives and substances to combat spots, scars, and flabbiness;
• Nutricosmetics: such as collagen and antioxidants, help improve the skin from the inside out.

Filling with hyaluronic acid

Filling with hyaluronic acid is a technique that consists of injecting hyaluronic acid to fill wrinkles, furrows, and depressions. It is also used for remodeling, such as zygomatic/malar volume augmentation. Learn more on the page Filling with hyaluronic acid.

Anti-wrinkle injection

The effect of this application promotes the smoothing of wrinkles and expression lines on the face, mainly in the eye region (such as crow's feet), in the forehead region, or in the space between the eyebrows (glabella).
