Radiesse in Chapel Hill, NC
If you’ve started noticing the lower face soften but you’re new to filler, structural Radiesse® is worth understanding. Undiluted, it restores volume and support—and stimulates some collagen along the way. Our Chapel Hill injectors explain how it differs from other fillers before you decide.
Understanding Structural Volume Loss
As the face matures, it loses deep structural volume—not just surface elasticity. That’s what makes the jawline soften and folds deepen. Structural Radiesse addresses it directly: undiluted calcium hydroxylapatite adds support where bone and fat have receded, and it stimulates some collagen as a secondary benefit. It’s a different tool from the diluted skin-quality version. The ASPS overview of dermal fillers is a helpful primer.
