How long does it take to get radiesse (dermal fillers) injections? i know the radiesse (dermal fillers) injections themselves should only take a few minutes. but is there any prep time or waiting time after? can i be in and out in under an hour?

I : I suspect that in most offices you should be able to get everything done in under an hour. You could ask your specific provider's office directly to make sure, though.

Your : Your question is a very good one. Commonly most injections take only a few minutes to perform, but please note that this is an oversimplification. If you are known to the physician and the aesthetic goals have already been determined - then you are ready to go. However, if you have yet to visit with your doctor, convey your concerns, and review therapeutic options, then your visit will take longer. An hour is reasonable to achieve all of these goals and your treatment during a first visit. It is important to note that it is your face and there is no advantage in cutting corners during the first visit. Be healthy and be well, james m. Ridgway, md www.Larrabeecenter.Com.

Usually : Usually you should be able to have it done in under an hour.

Initially : Initially you should have a complete evaluation of your face and have a discussion concerning the pros and cons of radiesse (dermal fillers). If you arrive with no makeup on then you will not have to remove it. The procedure and evaluation requires about an hour or so.
