Radiesse® Collagen biostimulator
Regenerative biostimulation to improve skin firmness, elasticity and quality
At Capilo Skin, we incorporate biostimulation treatments focused on progressively and naturally improving the quality and structure of the skin. Radiesse® , developed by Merz Aesthetics, is a regenerative biostimulator based on calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) that stimulates the skin’s natural renewal mechanisms.
Unlike treatments focused solely on adding volume, Radiesse® acts on fibroblasts and promotes the production of essential components for skin structure, such as collagen and elastin . As a result, it helps to progressively improve firmness, elasticity, density, and skin quality.
Its versatility allows the application technique and dilution to be adapted to the needs of each patient, seeking natural results that respect facial anatomy and expression.
What does Radiesse® treatment involve?
Radiesse® is composed of calcium hydroxyapatite microspheres suspended in a biocompatible gel. Once applied, these microspheres act as a scaffold or support that promotes fibroblast activation and stimulates the tissue’s own regenerative processes.
Over time, the treatment promotes the formation of new collagen and elastin, essential proteins for maintaining the skin’s strength, firmness, and elasticity.
Depending on the objective, Radiesse® can be used using different techniques and dilutions. When the main objective is biostimulation , it allows for the treatment of larger areas to improve skin quality without necessarily aiming for a volumizing effect.

- Loss of definition of the facial contour.

The indication, quantity of product and application technique are determined individually during the medical evaluation.
How is Radiesse® performed at Capilo Skin?
Before the procedure, we perform a facial medical assessment , analyzing skin quality, degree of sagging, loss of support, facial anatomy, and each patient’s objectives.
Subsequently, a personalized protocol is designed and Radiesse® is applied to strategic anatomical points and planes using injection techniques adapted to the area to be treated.
When used primarily for biostimulatory purposes, the product can be diluted or hyperdiluted to promote wider distribution and improve skin quality.
It is an outpatient procedure and generally allows you to resume your normal activities quickly, although temporary swelling, sensitivity or small bruises may occur in the application areas.
Expected results
One of the main characteristics of Radiesse® is that its benefits evolve over time. After treatment, a progressive biostimulation process begins in which the skin produces new collagen and elastin.
During the following weeks and months, you may notice firmer, more elastic, denser skin with improved quality , as well as a progressive improvement in support and the appearance of sagging.
Results and their duration vary depending on age, skin quality, treated area, technique used, metabolism, and individual characteristics of each patient.
Why choose Radiesse® at Capilo Skin?
At Capilo Skin, we understand biostimulation as part of a comprehensive approach to aging. Therefore, Radiesse® is not applied using the same protocol for all patients: the technique, dilution, and treatment areas are selected after individually assessing the skin’s anatomy and needs.
In addition, when indicated, it can be integrated with other aesthetic and regenerative medicine treatments to address different components of aging and enhance the overall quality of the skin.
