Radiesse® Collagen-Stimulating Filler
RADIESSE TREATMENT IN BELSIZE PARK, HAMPSTEAD, PRIMROSE HILL AND ST JOHN’S WOOD, NORTH WEST LONDON
Some treatments do more than simply restore volume, they actively improve your skin’s strength, structure, and quality over time. Radiesse is a next-generation injectable treatment that does exactly that. Unlike traditional fillers, Radiesse works on two levels: it provides immediate lift and contour, while also stimulating your body’s natural collagen production for long-lasting improvement in skin firmness and elasticity.
At our Belsize Park clinic in North West London, we offer Radiesse as a powerful regenerative treatment for patients who want natural-looking volume, improved facial structure, and skin that visibly looks and feels stronger over time. It’s particularly effective for those starting to notice early sagging, thinning skin, or loss of definition.
What Is Radiesse and How Does It Work?
Radiesse is a biostimulatory injectable made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) - a naturally occurring substance that acts as a scaffold for your skin to build new collagen and elastin.
Initially, it provides immediate volume and structure, but unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse continues working long after the injection, triggering your body’s own regenerative processes. As the CaHA microspheres are absorbed, your skin is left firmer, stronger, and more supported from within.
This dual-action effect makes Radiesse ideal for patients seeking long-term structural support, not just temporary volume. It’s especially beneficial in areas where the skin has begun to lose density, elasticity, and firmness.
What Areas Can Radiesse Treat?
Radiesse is a versatile treatment, ideal for enhancing facial contours and rejuvenating skin. Common treatment areas include:
Lower face and jawline – to restore definition and reduce jowling
Chin – to improve projection and create better balance in the profile
Marionette lines – to lift and soften deep creases around the mouth
Cheeks – for subtle volume with added skin-firming benefits
Hands – to restore volume and reduce the appearance of veins or tendons
Neck – using hyperdiluted Radiesse to improve skin tone and elasticity
We also use hyperdiluted Radiesse, where the product is mixed with saline and lidocaine to spread more evenly across larger areas. This technique is especially effective for skin quality improvements, such as treating crepey skin on the neck, décolletage, or arms, and encouraging long-term tissue remodelling.
Who Is It For?
Radiesse is ideal for patients who:
Want natural-looking contour and lift
Are noticing early signs of skin laxity and thinning
Prefer a longer-lasting result than hyaluronic acid fillers
Are interested in regenerative, collagen-stimulating treatments
Want to strengthen skin while also restoring volume
It’s suitable for both men and women, particularly those looking for a subtle, structural improvement rather than surface-level changes.
We also use hyperdiluted Radiesse, where the product is mixed with saline and lidocaine to spread more evenly across larger areas. This technique is especially effective for skin quality improvements, such as treating crepey skin on the neck, décolletage, or arms, and encouraging long-term tissue remodelling.
What to Expect from Your Treatment
Your journey starts with a comprehensive consultation, where we assess your facial structure, skin quality, and goals. Radiesse can be used as a standalone treatment or as part of a wider facial rejuvenation plan.
The treatment itself is quick and straightforward, usually taking 30-45 minutes. Radiesse contains lidocaine for comfort, and we use fine cannulas or needles for precise placement.
Results are visible immediately, with ongoing improvement over the following months as new collagen is produced. There may be slight swelling or bruising at the injection site, but this typically settles within a few days. Most patients return to normal activities immediately.
For hyperdiluted Radiesse, the skin-boosting benefits develop more gradually, often after a course of two to three sessions, spaced several weeks apart.
At Dr Marc Aesthetics, we take a holistic, full-face approach to rejuvenation.
