What Radiesse Cellulite Treatment Addresses

Unlike full-strength Radiesse, which restores facial volume, Hyperdilute Radiesse uses a highly diluted mixture—often one part CaHA microspheres to two or more parts saline—to treat moderate cellulite dimpling. By injecting this biostimulatory formula into the dermal layer, we harness the scaffold-like properties of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) to trigger a controlled inflammatory response. Fibroblasts are recruited to lay down new collagen and elastin, reinforcing the connective septae that tether fat to skin and minimizing the appearance of uneven, dimpled tissue on the buttocks, hips, thighs, abdomen, and even the arms.

About Hyperdilute Radiesse

Introduced in 2004 for facial volume restoration, CaHA-based Radiesse also excels as a deep collagen stimulator when diluted. At Ooltewah's Southern Surgical Arts, we prepare a Hyperdilute Radiesse solution—typically a 1:2 or 1:3 ratio of filler to saline—that flows smoothly beneath the skin. Unlike fillers that remain in a single pocket, this dispersion delivers widespread dermal remodeling. 

Over the next three to six months, fibroblasts build fresh, type-I collagen around PMMA microspheres, thickening the dermis and smoothing the surface. Effects can last 12–18 months, making this cellulite treatment in Ooltewah a long-term investment in skin quality.

What Is Calcium Hydroxylapatite?

Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) is a biocompatible, mineral-like compound found naturally in bones. In injectable form, microscopic CaHA spheres are suspended in a carrier gel. 

When delivered into tissue, the gel provides initial volume and smoothing, while the CaHA spheres act as permanent scaffolding that spurs collagen production. 

Over time, the gel absorbs, and the body's own collagen replaces its volume, creating a firmer, thicker dermal layer that resists dimple-causing fat protrusion.

More About Cellulite

Cellulite occurs when fibrous septae tether fat lobules to the skin, creating areas of tension and dimpling. Common on the buttocks, hips, thighs, and abdomen, cellulite appears as dimples, lumps, or “orange-peel” texture even in lean individuals.

Factors like hormones, genetics, and aging contribute by weakening collagen and enlarging fat chambers. A moderate pattern—characterized by visible dimples at rest—responds best to Hyperdilute Radiesse, which reinforces septal integrity and smooths the overlying skin.

Benefits of Hyperdilute Radiesse for Cellulite

When performed by experienced providers, Hyperdilute Radiesse delivers a suite of skin-improving benefits:

Stimulates Collagen Remodeling

CaHA microspheres trigger new collagen deposition, strengthening dermal support.

Smooths Dimpled Skin

Immediate gel dispersion plus long-term collagen support reduces visible cellulite dimples.

Treats Multiple Areas

Effective on buttocks, hips, inner and outer thighs, abdomen, arms, and knees.

Minimally Invasive

No incisions or general anesthesia—just microinjections under local numbing.

Rapid Recovery

Most patients resume daily activities the same day with only mild swelling or bruising.

Long-Lasting Results

Collagen framework endures for 12–18 months before touch-ups are considered.

Natural-Looking Texture

Even remodeling avoids lumps or uneven bulging common with superficial fillers.

Customizable Dilution Ratios

Strength tailored to skin laxity and cellulite severity.

Complements Other Treatments

Pairs well with microneedling, laser, and RF for comprehensive body rejuvenation.

Confidence Boost

Firmer, smoother skin often translates to greater comfort in shorts, swimsuits, and intimate moments.

Personal Consultation

Your confidential, no-cost meeting includes:

  • Review of your medical history and current medications.
  • Physical exam of cellulite patterns and skin quality.
  • Discussion of goals, dilution ratios, and session counts.
  • VISIA® imaging to document baseline texture.
  • Detailed quote covering treatment, any package savings, and follow-up schedule.

We answer every question so you leave informed and empowered.

Preparation

  • Discontinue aspirin, NSAIDs, and fish oil one week prior to reduce bruising.
  • Avoid alcohol for 48 hours before.
  • Hydrate well; keep skin moisturized but free of lotions on treatment day.
  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing to the appointment.

The Cellulite Treatment Procedure

After cleansing and numbing, a fine needle or microcannula delivers Hyperdilute Radiesse across marked depressions. The grid-style injection pattern ensures even coverage.

You may feel mild pressure or warmth, but discomfort is minimal. Once complete, we apply ice, review after-care, and you head home—no sedation required.

Recovery & Results

Mild swelling, redness, or bruising is common for 24–48 hours. Light activity resumes immediately; avoid hot tubs, intense workouts, and tight clothing for two days.

Gel smoothing appears right away; collagen remodeling refines contours over 8–12 weeks, revealing firmer, more even skin.

Corresponding & Complementary Procedures

For optimal body contouring, consider pairing Hyperdilute Radiesse with:

  • Microneedling for enhanced texture and pore refinement.
  • BBL® photofacials for pigment correction and superficial tightening.
  • Morpheus8 RF for combined microneedling and deeper collagen stimulation.
