Hyperdilute Radiesse Cellulite Treatment in Sandy Springs

Cellulite—those stubborn dimples, creases, and puckers—affects nearly everyone, regardless of weight or fitness level. Diet and exercise alone often can't erase the fibrous bands and collagen breakdown that cause the skin's “orange-peel” look.

At Southern Surgical Arts' luxury medspa in Sandy Springs, we offer a non-surgical cellulite treatment in Sandy Springs using Hyperdilute Radiesse™. This innovative injectable combines tiny CaHA (calcium hydroxylapatite) microspheres with saline to stimulate deep collagen remodeling, smoothing, and firming areas prone to dimpled texture. Best of all, treatments take under an hour, require only local numbing, and involve minimal downtime—so you can return to your busy schedule with confidence.

Book your complimentary Sandy Springs cellulite consultation today and discover how Hyperdilute Radiesse can refine your curves.

What Radiesse Cellulite Treatment Addresses

Hyperdilute Radiesse™ takes the same biostimulatory filler used for facial volume and repurposes it to target cellulite. By diluting standard Radiesse with saline (often a 1:2 or 1:3 ratio), the gel disperses evenly beneath the skin rather than creating a single pocket of volume.

When injected into the dimpled regions—typically the buttocks, thighs, hips, or abdomen—the carrier fluid dissipates, leaving behind CaHA microspheres that act as a scaffold for new collagen growth. Over the following weeks, your body's fibroblasts deposit fresh type-I collagen around each bead, strengthening the connective tissue network and raising depressed fat lobules, resulting in a smoother, more uniform skin surface.

Is Hyperdilute Radiesse Right for You?

If moderate cellulite dimples on your thighs, buttocks, or abdomen detract from your confidence—even after a dedicated fitness routine—Hyperdilute Radiesse may be an ideal non-surgical cellulite treatment in Sandy Springs. We recommend it for adults of any gender who maintain a stable weight and seek collagen-based improvement rather than volume alone. Those with active skin infections, a history of abnormal scarring, or recent isotretinoin use should consider alternatives. A private, no-obligation consultation will determine if your skin quality and personal goals align with this biostimulatory approach.

About Hyperdilute Radiesse

Since its FDA approval in 2004 for facial augmentation, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) has been recognized for its long-lasting volumizing and collagen-stimulating properties. In Hyperdilute Radiesse for cellulite, we mix CaHA microspheres with saline to create a more fluid solution that can be spread across a wider surface area.

The gel component provides immediate smoothing of depressions, while the CaHA beads remain in place to recruit collagen over several months. This dual-phase mechanism offers both instant cosmetic improvement and durable structural enhancement, making it a standout option for dimpled, lax skin.

What Is Calcium Hydroxylapatite?

Calcium hydroxylapatite is a biocompatible crystal compound similar to the mineral component of bone. In injectable form, uniform microspheres (30–40 microns) are suspended in a sterile gel carrier. Upon injection, the carrier gives initial contour support before gradually absorbing, while the microspheres serve as a scaffold for new collagen deposition. This process thickens the dermis, bolsters connective tissue, and counters the fibrous septae responsible for cellulite's puckered appearance.

More About Cellulite

Cellulite arises when subcutaneous fat pushes upward against weakened, fibrous septae within the dermis, creating tension and visible dimples.

Hyperdilute Radiesse excels at treating moderate cellulite—where depressions are noticeable at rest—by reinforcing the skin's structural support from beneath.

Cellulite can present as:

  • Dimples: Small depressions visible at rest.
  • Lumps or nodules: Fleshier protrusions often linked to deeper pockets of fat.
  • Waves or folds: Gentle ripples when skin is pinched or bent.
  • Creases: Fine lines in crepey or sun-damaged skin.

What Are the Benefits of Hyperdilute Radiesse for Cellulite?

Hyperdilute Radiesse delivers a comprehensive array of advantages:

  • Stimulates deep collagen remodeling to strengthen connective septae and smooth depressions.
  • Immediate smoothing effect from gel dispersion, visible before leaving the office.
  • Long-lasting results with collagen scaffold supporting results for 12–18 months.
  • Minimally invasive injection only, no incisions or general anesthesia.
  • Rapid recovery allowing normal activities the next day, with only mild swelling or bruising.
  • Treats multiple body areas—buttocks, hips, thighs, abdomen, arms, and knees.
  • Custom dilution ratios optimize strength for your specific skin elasticity and dimple severity.
  • Complements other modalities such as microneedling or laser for multi-layer rejuvenation.
  • Cost-effective compared to surgical subcision or energy-based body tightening.
  • Confidence-boosting results that let you feel comfortable in shorts, swimwear, and fitted clothing.

Personal Consultation

Your complimentary 45-minute appointment includes:

  1. Review of your medical and weight-loss history.
  2. Detailed physical examination of cellulite zones.
  3. VISIA® imaging to establish a baseline for texture and tone.
  4. Discussion of dilution ratios, session count, and potential results.
  5. Transparent cost quote and scheduling of your first treatment.

Preparation

  • Discontinue aspirin, NSAIDs, and fish oil one week before to reduce bruising.
  • Avoid alcohol for 48 hours pre-procedure.
  • Hydrate skin with moisturizer; keep treatment areas free of lotions on the day of.
  • Wear loose clothing for comfort post-injection.

The Cellulite Treatment Procedure

After applying a topical anesthetic, your injector administers the Hyperdilute Radiesse in a cross-hatch pattern beneath each dimple using a microcannula or fine needle. Gentle massage ensures even distribution. The session lasts 30–45 minutes, after which you receive ice packs and after-care instructions, then return to daily life.

Recovery & Results

Expect mild redness, firmness, or pinpoint bruising for 24–48 hours. Keep the area clean, avoid strenuous activity and heat for two days, and apply cold compresses as needed. Initial smoothing appears immediately; collagen-driven firmness peaks at 8–12 weeks, revealing firmer, more even skin texture.

Corresponding & Complementary Procedures

Maximize your results by combining Hyperdilute Radiesse with:

  • Microneedling to enhance texture and overall tone.
  • BBL® Photofacial for pigment correction and superficial firmness.
  • RF Skin Tightening (Morpheus8 or Renuvion) to address skin laxity in tandem with collagen support.

“My experience was wonderful! The staff and injectors are very knowledgeable, kind, patient, and informative. They made me feel at ease getting Botox for the first time. This will be my go-to MedSpa from here on out!”

How many treatments will I need?

Most clients see optimal smoothing after two to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.

Can I combine it with other body treatments?

Yes—pairing Radiesse with RF microneedling or laser can amplify collagen remodeling and skin tightening.

Is there significant discomfort?

Topical numbing and fine-gauge instruments keep pain minimal—most rate sensations a 2–3 on a 10-point scale.

How soon can I return to the gym?

Light activity is fine the next day; avoid hot yoga, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours.

Will weight gain affect my results?
