Radiesse in Newark , Ohio
Radiesse® is a unique injectable treatment that works in two powerful ways — as an immediate dermal filler and as a long-term collagen stimulator. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse® is formulated with Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel carrier. It instantly restores volume and structure upon injection, while simultaneously triggering your body's natural collagen-building process beneath the skin for results that develop and last well beyond the initial treatment.
Radiesse® is particularly effective for deeper facial folds, significant volume loss, and patients looking for longer-lasting results than traditional hyaluronic acid fillers provide.
What Is Radiesse?
How does Radiesse work?
Immediate volume: The CaHA gel carrier instantly fills and lifts areas of volume loss and deep folds upon injection.
Collagen stimulation: The CaHA microspheres act as a scaffold, stimulating your body to produce new natural collagen around the treatment site over time.
Progressive improvement: As your body's collagen builds around the microspheres, results continue to improve in the months following treatment.
Common areas treated include:
-
Smile lines (nasolabial folds)
-
Marionette lines
-
Cheeks and midface volume loss
-
Chin and jawline contouring
-
Jowling and lower face structure
-
Hand rejuvenation
Radiesse® vs. Sculptra® — What's the Difference?
If you've been researching collagen stimulators, you may have come across Sculptra® — one of the most well-known collagen-stimulating injectables on the market. At Slay Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer Radiesse® as our collagen stimulator of choice, and for good reason.
Both Radiesse® and Sculptra® are injectable collagen stimulators that work beneath the skin to rebuild facial volume and stimulate long-term collagen production — making them a fundamentally different approach to facial rejuvenation than traditional hyaluronic acid fillers. However, there are some key differences:
-
Immediate results: Radiesse® provides instant volume upon injection thanks to its CaHA gel carrier, while Sculptra® works gradually over several months with little immediate visible change.
-
Treatment sessions: Sculptra® typically requires 3 or more sessions to achieve optimal results. Many patients achieve their goals with Radiesse® in fewer appointments.
-
Dual action: Radiesse® acts as both an immediate filler and a collagen stimulator in a single treatment, offering two benefits at once.
-
Longevity: Both products offer long-lasting results, with Radiesse® typically lasting 12–18 months or longer.
If you've been considering Sculptra® and are located in Newark, Ohio or the surrounding Central Ohio area, we invite you to schedule a consultation at Slay Aesthetics & Wellness to learn whether Radiesse® may be the right collagen stimulator for your goals.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your appointment begins with a personalized consultation to discuss your goals, anatomy, and medical history. Your Slay Aesthetics clinician will recommend a custom treatment plan and explain what to expect before, during, and after your injections.
Radiesse® is placed using fine needles or cannulas. Most patients experience mild, brief pressure during treatment. Results are visible immediately, with continued improvement over the following 3–6 months as collagen production is stimulated beneath the skin.
Radiesse® typically lasts 12–18 months or longer, depending on the area treated, your individual metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Many patients find that with repeat treatments over time, less product is needed as natural collagen continues to build.
Safety and Contraindications
Radiesse® is safe and effective for most healthy adults. However, it may not be suitable for everyone. You may not be a candidate for Radiesse® if you:
-
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
-
Have a known allergy to any component of Radiesse®
-
Have a history of severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis
-
Are currently taking blood thinners or certain other medications

Does Radiesse hurt?
Most patients experience only mild pressure or slight discomfort during treatment. We use gentle techniques and numbing options to maximize your comfort throughout the procedure.
When will I see results?
Results are visible immediately following treatment. Over the following 3–6 months, as your body produces new collagen around the CaHA microspheres, your results will continue to improve and refine.
How long does Radiesse last?
Radiesse® typically lasts 12–18 months or longer, depending on the treatment area, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Many patients find that results improve with each subsequent treatment as collagen continues to build over time.
How is Radiesse different from RHA dermal filler?
Both Radiesse® and RHA filler are injectable treatments that restore volume and smooth wrinkles, but they work differently and serve different purposes. RHA filler uses hyaluronic acid to instantly add volume and flexibility to dynamic areas like the lips, cheeks, and smile lines — with results that move naturally with your expressions. Radiesse® uses Calcium Hydroxylapatite microspheres to provide immediate volume while also stimulating your body's own collagen production for longer-lasting, deeper structural improvement. Think of RHA filler as refining and enhancing, and Radiesse® as rebuilding and restoring. Your Slay Aesthetics clinician can help determine which treatment — or combination of both — is right for your goals.

How is Radiesse different from microneedling?
Both Radiesse® and microneedling stimulate collagen production, but in very different ways. Microneedling is a surface-level skin treatment that improves texture, tone, pore size, and scarring by triggering the skin's natural healing response. Radiesse® is an injectable treatment that works beneath the skin to restore lost facial volume and structure while stimulating deep collagen production. Many patients benefit from both as part of a comprehensive aesthetic plan — microneedling to improve the skin's surface and Radiesse® to restore the foundation beneath it.

I've heard of Sculptra — is Radiesse a good alternative?
Yes. Both Sculptra® and Radiesse® are injectable collagen stimulators designed to restore facial volume and stimulate your body's natural collagen production over time. The key difference is that Radiesse® also acts as an immediate dermal filler, providing visible volume restoration right away — whereas Sculptra® works more gradually with results developing over several months and typically requires more treatment sessions to achieve optimal results. If you've been researching Sculptra® in the Newark, Ohio area, we encourage you to schedule a consultation at Slay Aesthetics & Wellness to discuss whether Radiesse® is the right choice for you.
Can Radiesse be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. Radiesse® pairs beautifully with RHA dermal filler for areas requiring more flexibility and movement, and with microneedling for overall skin quality improvement. Your Slay Aesthetics clinician can recommend the most effective combination for your individual goals.
How much does Radiesse cost?
Pricing depends on your treatment goals and the amount of product needed. Your clinician will discuss a personalized plan and quote during your consultation.
Do you serve clients outside Newark?
Yes — we welcome patients from Heath, Granville, Mount Vernon, Utica, Johnstown, New Albany, and throughout Licking County and Central Ohio.
