RADIESSE® in Dubai

RADIESSE® Aftercare

Patients should follow the individual instructions provided by their doctor.

Depending on the treatment area and technique, patients may be advised to temporarily avoid: Intense Exercise • Sauna • Steam Rooms • Excessive Heat • Alcohol • Pressure or Manipulation of the Treated Area • Other Aesthetic Procedures

Do not massage the treated area unless specifically instructed by your doctor.

Aftercare may differ between structural and diluted biostimulation protocols.

Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, RADIESSE® contains calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a carboxymethylcellulose gel carrier.

The gel provides an initial structural effect, while the CaHA microspheres interact with the surrounding tissue and activate fibroblasts involved in extracellular matrix renewal.

At Pearl Skin Polyclinic in Dubai, RADIESSE® is selected when the treatment goal goes beyond simply adding volume.

The objective is to improve facial support, contour and skin quality while working with the patient's natural anatomy.

RADIESSE® for the Jawline

Jawline definition can change because of several factors: Skeletal Anatomy • Loss of Structural Support • Changes in Facial Volume • Skin Laxity • Subcutaneous Tissue • Masseter Anatomy • Platysma Activity

RADIESSE® may be considered for appropriate loss of jawline contour when structural support is part of the problem.

But jawline treatment should not simply mean injecting along the entire mandibular border.

We first determine why the jawline has lost definition.

If structural support is the dominant issue, RADIESSE® may be considered.

If skin laxity, muscle activity or another anatomical factor dominates, a different or combination strategy may be more appropriate.

RADIESSE® for the Lower Face

Age-related changes in the lower face can include: Deepening Nasolabial Folds • Marionette Lines • Pre-Jowl Hollowing • Changes Around the Corners of the Mouth • Reduced Structural Definition

RADIESSE® can be used for appropriate moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds, including selected lower-face concerns.

The objective is not to erase every fold.

Normal facial movement and anatomical transitions should remain.

RADIESSE® & Skin Quality

One of the most interesting aspects of RADIESSE® is what happens after injection.

CaHA microspheres interact with fibroblasts and support extracellular-matrix regeneration.

The biological response includes processes involving collagen, elastin and other components responsible for tissue structure and skin quality.

This means RADIESSE® may be selected when we want to address not only contour but also appropriate age-related changes in tissue quality.

The treatment strategy, however, is different when the objective is structural support versus more diffuse biostimulation.

The same product can be used differently depending on the biological target.

Hyperdiluted RADIESSE® for Skin Laxity

Skin laxity is not one uniform condition.

It can be influenced by: Collagen Loss • Elastin Changes • Tissue Thickness • Ageing • Sun Exposure • Weight Changes • Structural Support

When diffuse biostimulation is appropriate, hyperdiluted RADIESSE® may be considered as part of a skin-quality treatment strategy.

The objective is not to create artificial volume.

The objective is progressive improvement in tissue quality, firmness and regenerative support.

Patients with significant excess skin or advanced tissue descent may require a different treatment strategy.

RADIESSE® for Neck & Décolleté

The neck and décolleté can develop: Reduced Firmness • Crepey Texture • Fine Lines • Reduced Elasticity • Age-Related Skin Changes

In selected patients, a diluted CaHA biostimulation protocol may be considered for these areas when medically appropriate.

The anatomy and tissue thickness of the neck and décolleté differ from the face.

Treatment technique, dilution and product distribution therefore need to be selected specifically for the area.

RADIESSE® for Hands

Age-related changes in the hands may include: Reduced Tissue Volume • Increased Visibility of Tendons & Veins • Reduced Skin Quality • Structural Ageing

RADIESSE® has recognised use for selected hand rejuvenation indications in some markets.

Treatment suitability depends on anatomy, tissue condition and local regulatory status.

The objective is to improve appropriate age-related structural changes while preserving natural hand anatomy.

RADIESSE® for Nasolabial Folds

Nasolabial folds are normal anatomical structures extending from the sides of the nose toward the corners of the mouth.

Their prominence may increase due to: Ageing • Facial Anatomy • Mid-Face Changes • Tissue Descent • Loss of Structural Support

RADIESSE® may be considered for appropriate moderate-to-severe folds depending on the patient's anatomy and treatment plan.

The goal is not to erase every natural facial fold.

RADIESSE® for Marionette Lines & Pre-Jowl Area

Changes around the lower face can create shadows, folds and loss of definition.

The pre-jowl area may become more noticeable as facial structure and soft tissues change with age.

Marionette lines can also become more visible due to a combination of volume changes, tissue laxity and muscular activity.

RADIESSE® may be considered when structural support is an appropriate treatment target.

However, if significant laxity or muscular pull is the dominant cause, additional or alternative treatments may be required.

RADIESSE® vs Sculptra®

RADIESSE® and Sculptra® are both commonly described as collagen biostimulators, but they contain different materials and are not interchangeable.

RADIESSE® contains calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) and can provide an initial structural effect together with progressive biostimulation.

Sculptra® contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and is primarily used for gradual collagen stimulation and progressive tissue support.

The appropriate treatment depends on: Facial Anatomy • Treatment Area • Degree of Volume or Structural Change • Skin Quality • Desired Timeline • Clinical Objective

There is no single biostimulator that is automatically better for every patient.

RADIESSE® vs Morpheus8

Both treatments may be incorporated into programmes for tissue quality and ageing, but they work through very different mechanisms.

RADIESSE® is an injectable CaHA biostimulator.

Morpheus8 uses fractional radiofrequency microneedling to create controlled thermal coagulation and tissue remodelling.

RADIESSE® may be selected when injectable structural support or biostimulation is appropriate.

Morpheus8 may be selected when the target is fractional treatment of: Skin Laxity • Texture • Acne Scars • Tissue Remodelling

Some patients may benefit from both treatments within a staged programme.

When Will I See RADIESSE® Results?

RADIESSE® can produce both initial and progressive changes.

The gel carrier may provide an early structural effect in appropriately treated areas.

The CaHA-related biostimulatory response develops progressively as extracellular-matrix remodelling occurs.

Patients may therefore notice changes in: Facial Contour • Structural Support • Skin Firmness • Tissue Quality • Elasticity

The timeline depends on the treatment strategy and individual response.

The immediate structural effect and progressive biostimulatory effect should not be considered the same process.

How Many RADIESSE® Sessions Will I Need?

There is no universal treatment course suitable for every patient.

The number of treatments depends on: Treatment Area • Clinical Objective • Degree of Structural Change • Skin Quality • Treatment Technique • Previous Treatments • Individual Response

Some patients may require one treatment followed by reassessment.

Others may benefit from a staged treatment or broader regenerative programme.

How Long Do RADIESSE® Results Last?

RADIESSE® is not a permanent treatment.

Duration varies according to: Treatment Area • Amount of Product • Technique • Tissue Characteristics • Individual Biological Response • Ageing Process

The structural and biostimulatory components of treatment may also evolve differently over time.

Maintenance is determined according to individual clinical assessment.

Can RADIESSE® Be Combined with Other Treatments?

RADIESSE® may form part of a personalised facial or skin-rejuvenation programme.

Depending on the patient's concerns, this may include: BOTOX® / Dysport® • Hyaluronic Acid Fillers • Sculptra® • Morpheus8 • BBL HEROic™ • Skin-Quality Treatments

These procedures address different biological and structural targets.

They are not necessarily performed during the same appointment.

The sequence and timing are planned individually.

When RADIESSE® May Not Be the Right Treatment

RADIESSE® is not intended for every aesthetic concern or anatomical area.

A different treatment may be more appropriate when the primary goal is:

Lip Augmentation • Under-Eye / Tear-Trough Correction • Very Superficial Fine-Line Correction • Dynamic Wrinkle Treatment • Pigmentation Treatment • Vascular Redness Treatment • Significant Excess Skin

The appropriate injectable depends on the anatomical area, tissue characteristics and clinical objective.

A biostimulator should be selected because the tissue needs biostimulation — not simply because collagen stimulation sounds desirable.

Can RADIESSE® Be Dissolved?

RADIESSE® is not a hyaluronic acid filler.

Its active component is calcium hydroxylapatite.

For this reason, it cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase in the same way as an HA filler.

This makes appropriate product selection, anatomical placement and injection technique particularly important.

Patients should inform their doctor about previous injectable treatments before receiving RADIESSE®.

RADIESSE® Consultation in Dubai

At Pearl Skin Polyclinic in Dubai, RADIESSE® treatment begins with determining whether the tissue requires structural support, biostimulation or another treatment entirely.

We assess facial anatomy, skin quality, degree of laxity, structural changes, facial proportions and previous injectable treatments.

The treatment strategy is then selected according to the clinical objective.

For some patients, RADIESSE® may be appropriate for structural support.

For others, a diluted biostimulation strategy may be considered.

And for some concerns, a hyaluronic acid filler, Sculptra®, Morpheus8 or another treatment may be more appropriate.

The goal is personalised CaHA treatment that improves structural support and tissue quality while respecting natural anatomy.
