Restore a subtle lift and youthful volume to aging skin on your face and hands with Radiesse injections in Nashville. This innovative filler enhances contours instantly and stimulates collagen production for natural, long-lasting rejuvenation.
Achieve youthful, long-lasting volume with Radiesse in Nashville—an advanced dermal filler designed to restore definition and smooth wrinkles.
Radiesse is an FDA-approved subdermal injectable filler used for the correction of moderate to severe wrinkles for both your face and hands. It’s commonly used to treat nasolabial folds (the lines that extend from the corners of your nose to the corners of your mouth) and to correct signs of facial fat loss in patients with HIV.
The dermal filler is composed of synthetic calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a water-based gel carrier. CaHA is composed of phosphate and calcium ions that naturally occur in the body. Initially, the gel fills in the volume you desire. As time goes on, the CaHA stimulates your body’s natural ability to generate collagen – so your skin produces its own filler. Over time, your body absorbs the CaHA, leaving the youthful collagen in place for up to two years.
We will perform your Radiesse injections in the comfort of our Franklin, TN area office. The dermal filler is formulated with a local numbing aging, so no anesthesia is necessary for a comfortable procedure. The injections will take about 15 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and you’ll be able to return home immediately.

Is there a recovery period?
Most healthy adults are candidates for Radiesse if they want to correct moderate to severe facial lines or aging skin on the hands. However, it’s not an appropriate solution for Nashville patients with severe allergies or bleeding disorders.
Side effects are moderate and generally clear quickly. The most common side effects reported by our Franklin, TN patients affect the treatment site and include tenderness, swelling, redness, itching, and bruising.
This procedure is routinely performed on an outpatient basis in Dr. Moran’s Nashville area office.
No anesthesia is administered prior to Radiesse injections.
For most patients, little to no recovery time is needed after Radiesse injections. Swelling and bruising should dissipate within the first 36 hours, and you will be free to return to your normal daily routine – with the exception of strenuous exercise – right away.
