Introduction
If you’ve started noticing crepey skin, volume loss, or subtle sagging, you’re not alone. These are some of the most common concerns we treat at GC Skin Medspa in Sherman Oaks, especially for patients in Sherman Oaks, Encino, Studio City, and surrounding areas.
Today’s most advanced aesthetic treatments don’t just fill—they restore, rebuild, and rejuvenate from within. One of our favorite treatments for achieving this is Radiesse, often called “the filler that keeps on giving.”
Let’s explore why this powerful biostimulatory treatment has become a go-to solution for natural, long-lasting skin rejuvenation.
What Is Radiesse and Why Is It Different?
Radiesse is not your typical filler.
Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, Radiesse is a biostimulatory injectable made with calcium-based microspheres that do two things:
- Immediately restore lost volume
- Stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production over time
This means your results don’t just look good right away—they continue to improve for months.
How Radiesse Treats Crepey Skin
Crepey skin happens when collagen and elastin decline, leading to thin, loose, and wrinkled skin.
Radiesse—especially when used in a hyper-diluted form—is one of the most effective treatments for:
- Skin laxity
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Loss of firmness and elasticity
By spreading the product evenly under the skin, it triggers your body to rebuild structure from within, resulting in smoother, firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
Where Can Radiesse Be Used?
One of the reasons we love Radiesse at GC Skin Medspa in Sherman Oaks is its versatility.
Face: Restore Lift & Definition
- Adds volume to cheeks and midface
- Improves nasolabial folds and jowling
- Enhances facial contours naturally
Neck & Décolletage: Smooth Crepey Skin
- Softens fine lines
- Improves skin texture
- Tightens loose skin
Hands: One of the Most Overlooked Aging Areas
Hands often reveal age faster than the face.
Radiesse can:
- Restore lost volume
- Reduce visible tendons and veins
- Improve skin quality and smoothness
Body Treatments: Advanced Skin Tightening
Radiesse can also be used in areas like:
- Above the knees
- Arms (crepey upper arms)
- Glutes (including hip dips)
These treatments provide subtle, natural-looking improvements that evolve over time.
What Makes Radiesse Unique?
Radiesse stands out because it delivers both immediate and progressive results.
- You’ll see instant improvement in volume
- Over the next 1–4 months, collagen production increases
- Skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more radiant
This regenerative approach is why patients love it—it looks natural and keeps improving.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Radiesse last?
Results can last 12–18 months or longer, especially because it stimulates your own collagen production.
Is Radiesse better than hyaluronic acid fillers?
They serve different purposes. Radiesse is ideal for collagen stimulation and skin quality, while HA fillers are great for precise volume and contouring.
Does the treatment hurt?
Most patients report minimal discomfort thanks to numbing and the use of a cannula technique.
When will I see results?
You’ll notice immediate improvement, with continued enhancement over several months.
Can Radiesse be used for the neck and chest?
Yes—hyper-diluted Radiesse is one of the best treatments for crepey skin in these areas.
How many sessions do I need?
This depends on your goals, but many patients benefit from a series of treatments for optimal collagen stimulation.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal. You may have slight swelling or bruising, but most patients return to normal activities quickly.
