Instant structure. Lasting collagen.

Two phases: the gel gives immediate contour like a filler, while its microspheres stimulate your own collagen. Structure now, regeneration after.

Both are collagen biostimulators; the difference is character and timeline. Radiesse® provides immediate structure and contour while your collagen builds behind it, with results lasting around 12–18 months. Sculptra® works more gradually and diffusely, ideal for soft overall firmness, lasting up to two years. Your consultation determines which suits your goals, and they can complement each other.

Immediately, then continued improvement over the following months as new collagen forms.

Long-lasting, around 12–18 months, as the initial support is replaced by your own collagen. For diluted and hyperdiluted treatments, we recommend a maintenance session once a year. Undiluted contouring is topped up only if needed.

It depends on how it is placed. Diluted or hyperdiluted to firm the skin, Radiesse® is a series, not a one-time treatment: your foundation is laid over 2 to 3 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, then a maintenance session once a year. Undiluted for contour, it adds immediate structure in a single session, with maintenance only if needed. Facial contouring often uses 1–3 syringes per session; larger areas use more. Radiesse® is priced per syringe, so you pay for exactly what your plan needs.

Comfortable, with lidocaine included for ease. There's little downtime, though some swelling, redness, tenderness, or mild bruising is normal at first and settles within a few days. Avoid exercise, sweating, heat (saunas, hot tubs), and alcohol for the first 24 hours, then ease back into intense activity over the next day or two. Protect the area from direct sun for about 5–7 days, and hold off on facials, lasers, or other injectables in the same area for about two weeks.

Radiesse® is made from calcium hydroxylapatite, a mineral found naturally in your bones, so it's highly biocompatible and gradually absorbed by your body over time. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. We review your health history and go over everything with you before we begin.

Every injection at Boxxed is performed by our Founder and RN Lead Injector, Ivan Korobkov. Radiesse® is all about precise contour and placement, and his nursing background brings a deep understanding of anatomy and safety to every treatment.

Ideal if you want immediate structure plus long-term collagen stimulation, on the face or body. A consultation confirms the approach.
