Radiesse is one of the newer non-surgical facial contour fillers that deliver an immediate result. You can take comfort in knowing that Dr John L. Porcaro, Board Certified by The American Board of Cosmetic Surgery* will make product recommendations for you, taking into consideration your individual facial features, your goals and your budget!

Dr Porcaro has been injecting radiesse since 2007 and has successully injected hundreds of syringes of Radiesse!

Radiesse Port St Lucie is made of very tiny smooth calcium hydroxyl apatite (CaHA) micro spheres. The CaHA that makes up the product has been used for decades and is safe and bio- compatible.

 The micro sphere particles form a scaffold through which your body's own collagen grows, which produces improvement that can last 9-12 mos. Unlike collagen and Hyaluronic acid, Radiesse results in immediate correction as a tissue filler with extended correction through collagen regeneration.
