Offered at Cutis Medical Laser Clinics, calcium fillers are composed of Calcium Hydroxylapatite, a mineral-like material that has been used in medical and aesthetic applications. When injected into appropriate areas, CaHA can provide structural support and volume while also stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production.

Unlike softer fillers that may be selected for specific areas requiring subtle volume, CaHA has a more structured consistency that can be considered for areas where additional support and definition are desired. Treatment may be used for concerns involving the cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin, jawline and backs of the hands, depending on the individual patient’s anatomy and treatment goals.

Addressing Volume Loss and Facial Contouring
Facial aging can involve both changes in skin quality and the gradual loss or redistribution of underlying volume. These changes may contribute to the appearance of deeper folds, reduced facial definition and sagging.

CaHA fillers can provide immediate volume following injection, while the material may also support collagen production over time. This combination makes the treatment an option for patients seeking to address both volume loss and aspects of skin firmness.

Treatment areas may include:

Midface and cheeks: To address volume loss and support facial contours
Nasolabial folds: To soften the appearance of folds extending from the nose toward the mouth
Marionette lines: To address lines extending downward from the corners of the mouth
Chin: To improve the appearance of selected wrinkles and contour concerns
Pre-jowl area: To address volume deficiency between the chin and jawline
Backs of the hands: To improve the appearance associated with volume loss in the hands
A Treatment That Requires Individual Assessment
While calcium fillers can be suitable for a range of concerns, dermal filler treatment is not appropriate for everyone. The choice of filler, injection technique, treatment area and amount used should be determined following an assessment by a qualified medical practitioner.

At Cutis Medical Laser Clinics, injectable treatments are provided in a clinical setting with an emphasis on individualized treatment planning. The clinic's medical and scientific director, Dr. Sylvia Ramirez, is a US Board-Certified doctor with experience in cosmetic injectables, including dermal fillers and botulinum toxin.

A consultation allows the doctor to assess facial anatomy, skin condition, existing volume and the patient's aesthetic objectives before determining whether CaHA or another treatment option is appropriate.

What Patients Can Expect
Calcium filler injections are generally performed as an outpatient procedure. A topical numbing cream may be used to improve comfort during treatment.

Patients may experience temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising following injections. Some treated areas may also feel firm for a period of time as the product settles. The amount of downtime varies according to the individual and treatment area.

Visible volume changes may be apparent following treatment, while the collagen-stimulating effects of CaHA can develop progressively over time. Reported duration of results can vary, with some results lasting approximately 12 to 18 months depending on factors such as the treatment area, product used, individual metabolism and lifestyle.

Supporting a More Refreshed Appearance
For individuals concerned about facial volume loss, wrinkles or reduced definition, calcium-based dermal fillers provide one option within the broader range of non-surgical aesthetic treatments.

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, an individualized consultation can help determine whether CaHA fillers are suitable and which treatment strategy may best address the patient's specific concerns.
