At Reflections Medical Spa, we specialize in advanced aesthetic treatments that deliver natural-looking, lasting results. Radiesse is a unique, collagen-stimulating dermal filler designed to restore volume, define facial contours, and rejuvenate aging hands — all while improving skin quality from the inside out.
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is an FDA-approved, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA)-based dermal filler. Unlike traditional fillers that simply add volume, Radiesse acts as a biostimulant, triggering your skin to produce new collagen for long-term improvement.
This dual-action filler provides both immediate lift and lasting regeneration — making it a favorite among clients who want structure, firmness, and skin rejuvenation in one treatment.

- Lifts and sculpts cheeks, jawline, and chin
- Smooths deep wrinkles (like nasolabial folds and marionette lines)
- Improves skin firmness and elasticity over time
- Treats aging hands by restoring volume and minimizing veins/tendons
- Long-lasting results with natural collagen stimulation
- Non-surgical, minimal downtime
