Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite biostimulator that delivers immediate structure and stimulates your own collagen over 3 or more months, working in 2 ways at once.
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) biostimulator filler that adds instant structure to areas like the jaw, chin, and cheeks while stimulating your own collagen over the following months. It can also be hyperdiluted to firm crepey neck or décolletage skin. For patients near Hongdae (Hongik Univ.) Station, treatment is provided at our Gangnam and Myeongdong locations with English support.
One-on-One guidance from a dedicated doctor, ensuring your skin is professionally monitored and treated from start to finish.
Fluent assistance in English, Japanese, and Chinese, making communication clear, respectful and comfortable for international patients.
Over 100,000 patients worldwide have received our personalized dermatological care, highlighting our expertise and reliable results.
Radiesse is an injectable filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a smooth gel carrier. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which purely add volume, Radiesse is a biostimulator: it provides immediate lift and contour, then the microspheres act as a scaffold that stimulates your own collagen and elastin over the months that follow. This dual action makes it a popular choice for restoring facial structure and improving skin firmness in a single product.
Used at classic concentration, Radiesse is placed deep to contour the jawline, chin, and cheeks, giving definition and correcting age-related volume loss. Diluted or hyperdiluted with saline, the same product spreads thinly across larger, thinner-skinned areas such as the neck, décolletage, upper arms, and knees, where it is used less for volume and more to stimulate collagen for a firmer, smoother texture. Because CaHA is not suited to very delicate zones like the lips or tear trough, hyaluronic acid is usually preferred there.
At Reberry Clinic, Radiesse treatment is consultation-led. The clinic’s doctors assess your goals, skin, and anatomy, then decide whether classic contouring, hyperdiluted tightening, or a combination with another product fits best. For international patients near Hongdae (Hongik Univ.) Station, care is provided across our Seoul locations in Gangnam and Myeongdong, easily reached from 홍대입구역, with English-speaking support throughout.
Calcium hydroxylapatite is a mineral compound found naturally in bone, which is why Radiesse is highly biocompatible and gradually broken down by the body over time. When injected, the CaHA microspheres do two things: they immediately occupy space to lift and contour, and they trigger a controlled healing response in which fibroblasts deposit new type I and III collagen and elastin around each microsphere. Over months, the gel carrier is absorbed while this fresh collagen network remains, which is why the improvement in structure and skin quality continues to develop after the initial result. At classic concentration the emphasis is on contour, whereas hyperdilution, commonly mixing the product with saline or a little lidocaine at ratios such as 1:1 up to 1:6, prioritises the collagen-stimulating, skin-tightening effect across broad areas without adding bulk. Placement depth, dilution, and volume are all matched to the target zone and your anatomy, and a cannula is often used in thin-skinned or vascular areas to improve safety. Because settings are individualised, your plan is built at consultation rather than from a single fixed recipe.

The doctor decides between contouring and skin tightening, which sets whether classic or 1 of the diluted techniques is used.
Classic Radiesse suits contour, while dilution ratios from 1:1 up to 1:6 spread collagen stimulation across broader, thinner-skinned zones.
Topical or mixed-in numbing is applied for about 15 to 20 minutes, and the area is cleansed to reduce infection risk before injection.
Product is placed deep for contour or more superficially when diluted, often via 1 cannula entry per zone to improve safety.
The doctor massages diluted product evenly and checks contour symmetry, using measured volumes to keep the result natural.
Over the next 3 or more months your own collagen develops around the microspheres, so results continue improving after the visit.
See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
The clinic’s doctors assess your goals, skin, and anatomy, then explain whether classic contouring, hyperdiluted tightening, or a combination suits you, in English.
After numbing, a Radiesse session usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes depending on the number of areas and syringes involved.
Contour is often achieved in a single visit, while broad skin-tightening plans may be staged across a short series of sessions.
Structure is visible immediately, then collagen-driven improvement continues over roughly 3 months, which your doctor reviews at follow-up.
Results often last around a year or longer, and periodic maintenance plus good skincare and sun protection help sustain the effect.
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) biostimulator filler that adds immediate structure while stimulating your own collagen over the following months. It is used to contour the jaw, chin, and cheeks, or hyperdiluted to firm crepey skin. You can explore related options on our injectable fillers page.
Patients near Hongdae (Hongik Univ.) Station are cared for at our Seoul locations in Gangnam and Myeongdong, both easily reached from 홍대입구역 with full English support. Your Radiesse consultation and treatment take place there, and the team helps coordinate timing around your travel plans.
Radiesse is a biostimulator that adds structure and builds collagen over months, while hyaluronic acid filler adds direct, dissolvable volume and suits delicate zones like lips and tear troughs. They are chosen for different goals. Your doctor explains which fits your anatomy, and you can compare on our fillers page.
Both are collagen-stimulating biostimulators, but Radiesse (CaHA) gives immediate structure plus collagen, while Sculptra (PLLA) works mainly gradually with little instant volume. Radiesse often suits contour goals, Sculptra suits subtle overall restoration. Your doctor recommends the better fit for your goal at consultation.
Classic Radiesse contours the jaw, chin, and cheeks, while hyperdiluted Radiesse firms crepey skin on the neck, décolletage, upper arms, and knees. It is not used in the lips or tear trough, where HA is preferred. Your doctor confirms suitable areas for your goals during the consultation.
Discomfort is generally mild because numbing is applied and lidocaine is often mixed into the product, and a cannula may be used to reduce trauma. Most patients describe pressure rather than sharp pain. You can review our full filler treatment options before booking a consultation.
Downtime is usually short, with possible mild swelling, redness, or bruising for a few days, depending on the area treated. Most people return to daily activities quickly. Using a cannula and measured technique helps limit bruising, and your doctor advises on aftercare tailored to your treated zone.
Structure is visible immediately after treatment, and the collagen-building benefit continues developing over roughly 3 months as your skin remodels. Hyperdiluted tightening plans improve more gradually across a series. Your doctor reviews progress at follow-up to confirm the result is developing as expected.
Radiesse results often last around a year or longer, varying by area, technique, and individual metabolism, since the collagen it stimulates contributes to duration. It is not permanent, so occasional maintenance sustains the effect. Your doctor discusses a realistic timeline for your treated area at consultation.
Radiesse is not readily dissolvable the way hyaluronic acid is, since there is no simple enzyme to remove CaHA, so conservative, doctor-led placement matters. This is one reason HA is preferred in high-risk delicate zones. If reversibility is a priority for you, your doctor may suggest an HA option instead.
Contouring is often achieved in a single session per area, while broad skin-tightening over the neck or décolletage may run across 2 or more sessions spaced weeks apart. The number depends on your laxity and goal, which your doctor confirms at assessment so the plan is clear from the start.
Yes, Radiesse pairs well with HA filler for delicate zones or with skin boosters for surface quality, planned so no area is over-treated. Some patients combine contouring with a Rejuran Healer course for skin quality. Your doctor sequences treatments so the overall result stays balanced.
Most adults wanting jaw, chin, or cheek contour, or firmer neck and décolletage skin, are suitable, especially those wanting collagen support alongside structure. It is not used in lips or the tear trough. A consultation confirms whether Radiesse, another biostimulator, or HA filler best fits your skin and goals.
Radiesse is widely used and generally considered safe when injected by a trained doctor who matches technique and depth to your anatomy, with rare risks such as vascular events reduced by careful, cannula-assisted technique. A consultation screens for contraindications first. You can read more on our fillers page.
For a first session, 2 to 3 days is comfortable, allowing a consultation, the treatment, and a short review before departure. Some patients allow an extra day in case of minor bruising. Our English-speaking team near Hongdae Station coordinates timing at our Gangnam and Myeongdong locations.
Yes, flying within a day or so is generally fine, as Radiesse is minimally invasive. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and protect treated skin from sun, and avoid pressing on contoured areas during travel. Your doctor gives travel-specific aftercare guidance before you leave Seoul.
International patients can complete Radiesse in one visit where possible, and the clinic offers remote check-ins in English so questions after you travel are handled promptly. Your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity on return trips. You can also maintain skin quality at home with supportive skin care.
