Radiesse & Sculptra

The timeline for seeing results can vary depending on the specific treatment and individual factors.

With Sculptra:

• Results are gradual and become more noticeable over time.
•  Stimulates collagen production.
•  Takes several weeks to months to see full effects.
• Multiple treatment sessions may be needed.

On the other hand, Radiesse provides:

• Immediate volume and lift upon injection
• Stimulates collagen production for long lasting results.
• Effects continue to improve over time.

• Generally, Sculptra results can last up to two years or more, as the treatment stimulates collagen production, which gradually improves the skin’s texture and volume over time.
• Radiesse results typically last up to three years or more, as the product provides immediate volume and lift while also stimulating collagen production for longer-term benefits.

The number of treatments needed can vary depending on several factors, including the specific treatment area, desired outcome, and individual response to the treatment.

• For Sculptra, multiple treatment sessions are typically recommended, usually spaced about four to six weeks apart. Most individuals require an average of three to four sessions to achieve optimal results with maintenance visits to maintain your results.
• With Radiesse, one or two treatment sessions are often sufficient to achieve the desired outcome. However, additional treatments are typically recommended for maintenance or to address specific concerns.
• The exact number of treatments needed will be determined during your consultation with La Clinique Aesthetics. We will assess your unique situation and develop a personalized treatment plan.

• Both Sculptra and Radiesse have minimal recovery periods, and special massage techniques may be recommended for optimal results.
• After Sculptra injections, some swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites may occur. These side effects are typically mild and temporary, resolving within a few days. Gentle massage techniques are recommended five times daily, for five minutes, for five days to help distribute the product evenly and minimize the risk of lumps or nodules forming.
• La Clinique Aesthetics will provide specific instructions on when and how to perform the massage.
• Similarly, after Radiesse injections, you may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. These effects usually subside within a few days. Gentle massage techniques may be advised to ensure even distribution of the filler and minimize the risk of any irregularities. La Clinique Aesthetics will provide specific instructions on when and how to perform the massage.
• It is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your healthcare professional at La Clinique Aesthetics. This may include avoiding strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, and certain skincare products immediately after the treatment.
• There is a possibility of experiencing bruising, so it is highly recommended to plan at least two weeks in advance for any upcoming events or vacations.
