Contour a More Youthful You With Radiesse in Brookline
Restore facial contours and address visible signs of aging with Radiesse® in Brookline at Dream Spa Medical. Facial volume loss and changes in skin structure can contribute to wrinkles, folds, hollows, and less-defined contours.
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) injectable that provides immediate structural support while encouraging the body’s natural collagen production. This makes Radiesse a versatile option for non-surgical facial contouring and rejuvenation.
What Can Radiesse® Treat?
Depending on your treatment area and aesthetic goals, Radiesse may help improve the appearance of facial volume loss, wrinkles and folds, facial hollows, less-defined contours, and age-related changes in skin firmness. In some applications, diluted or hyperdiluted Radiesse may be used to focus more on improving the appearance of skin quality rather than adding volume.

Radiesse Before & After
How Does Radiesse® Work?
Your Radiesse treatment in Brookline begins with a personalized consultation. Your provider will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your goals, and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
During treatment, Radiesse is precisely injected into selected areas to provide structural support and restore volume. Its calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres provide immediate support while stimulating collagen production over time, helping create smoother-looking skin and more defined facial contours.
Benefits of Radiesse® in Brookline
Radiesse offers a non-surgical approach to facial contouring, volume restoration, wrinkle reduction, and skin rejuvenation.

While most dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid (HA) as their active ingredient, Radiesse is composed of smooth calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a sodium carboxymethylcellulose gel carrier. Radiesse is approximately 30% CaHA and 70% gel carrier by volume. It adds additional volume for long-lasting contouring results.
Because of the CaHA, Radiesse also stimulates collagen generation in the injected area. It also provides a molecular scaffold as your body naturally creates more connective tissue, which encourages moisture retention, restores lost volume, and generally creates a healthier, more youthful look. All of this creates skin-tightening benefits, too, for amazing, youthful facial rejuvenation.
Your treatment will be administered with a very fine-gauge needle. Most patients find the procedure to be surprisingly tolerable, and we’ll help you with a topical numbing agent for added comfort.
After your treatment with Radiesse in Brookline, you’ll experience some redness and tenderness in the treatment area, but this will fade within a day or so. Your results will last for up to a year or longer before your body metabolizes the product.
Many patients will achieve their desired result after just one visit. Radiesse is a long-term cosmetic enhancement, and to ensure your satisfaction, we recommend a maintenance plan and will schedule follow-up visits accordingly.
Through years of clinical studies and independent research, Radiesse in Brookline has proven to be both effective and safe. With Radiesse, you can count on FDA-approved, clinically tested reliability now and in the future.
Pre- & Post-Care Instructions for Radiesse in Brookline
- Women who are pregnant or nursing should not be treated with dermal fillers.
- Women who are actively trying to conceive should consult their physician prior to receiving dermal fillers.
- Please allow a minimum of 2 weeks’ time in between any vaccinations and your treatment.
- It is best to avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.) 24 to 48 hours prior to your treatment. This may increase your risk of bruising.
- If you have had dental work (including a cleaning) within the past 2 weeks, or are planning to within 2 weeks post your dermal filler treatment, we advise you to defer your treatment until the 2-week mark after your dental treatment.
- If you are actively on any prescription antibiotics or steroids, we ask that you wait 2 weeks to be treated upon completion of the medication course.
- If you are feeling under the weather or are experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms, it is best to wait until you have fully recovered to be treated.
- You may opt to take Arnica and/or Bromelain tablets for 2 weeks prior to your injections. This will assist with healing and bruising.
- If you are prone to and being treated in an area that may cause a Herpes Labialis outbreak, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best and will help to accelerate your healing time as well as enhance results.
- You may consider having at least a snack or a small meal within an hour of your appointment. Getting injected with needles can at times cause one to feel “queasy” or unwell. It always helps to have a little something in your stomach to combat those feelings. We keep juice and snack bars on hand in case you need a little pick-me-up mid-treatment!
- The treatment area will most likely feel sensitive, swollen, and tender to the touch; this may last for up to 2 weeks. If you are experiencing excessive pain, discomfort, throbbing, or excessive swelling in the treated area, please contact Dream Spa Medical immediately so that we can assess if you should be seen by our team.
- Due to the lidocaine anesthetic in the gel, you may feel numbness or tingling immediately after the procedure, which will resolve within an hour.
- If you are being treated in multiple areas or if your provider is making a heavy correction involving a lot of product, you should expect your soreness, swelling, and tenderness to be more elevated. You and your provider can discuss what will fall into the “normal” range, and you will be contacted via phone within 48 hours by your provider to check in and see how your treatment is settling.
- We advise that you take Tylenol for any discomfort for 2 weeks post-treatment. It is best to avoid any type of ibuprofen, as it may increase your risk of bruising.
- Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, sweating, and other activities that involve heat (steam/sauna) for 48 hours.
- Visible injection marks are normal as well as bruising, and these are to be expected in most cases. These will heal normally within 2 weeks. Please do not pick at the injection sites, as this may cause infection.
- Treated areas should be cared for gently when washing your face or applying products. It is best to not touch or manipulate the treated area for at least 48 hours.
- We suggest waiting a full 2 weeks before any additional treatments, such as facials, peels, laser, etc.
- Your results will develop over time as the product integrates into your existing tissue. This may take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks.
- Please do not manipulate or massage any area of treatment, unless instructed to do so by your provider. Some areas require massaging, such as the neck. You will be given clear instructions tailored to your treatment before you leave. Your provider will set up a 2 week post-procedure appointment to address any concerns or physical developments, such as bumps in the treated area. Please call Dream Spa Medical if you are unsure about any of these instructions or have any questions.
- Ice or clean, cool compresses may be used in any area of treatment immediately after, up to 48 hours post-procedure. This will help any swelling and discomfort.
- Do not apply makeup over injection points until the day after the procedure. If you need to apply something for hydration to your lips, then please use Aquaphor/Vaseline with a clean cotton tip.
- Try to sleep on your back, with your head elevated, for 1 to 2 nights.
- You may opt to take Arnica tablets or apply Arnica gel for up to 2 weeks post-treatment to assist with healing and bruising. Taking an over-the-counter antihistamine (Zyrtec, Claritin) daily may help minimize swelling.
- We advise that you should not fly on an airplane or any type of aircraft for at least 1 week post-treatment. The changes in air pressure and altitude can exacerbate or produce swelling.
Fillers are exciting and beautiful tools that help us enhance and restore your natural beauty. They are also medical treatments that should be performed by an experienced practitioner.

- A rash that appears in the treated area and is accompanied by pustules or dusky discoloration of the skin.
