At Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Specialists in Newburgh, NY, Dr. Ran Rubinstein and his team provide Hyperdilute Radiesse injections to help patients achieve smoother, tighter skin in areas where crepiness and laxity often appear. Unlike traditional filler treatments, which primarily restore volume, Hyperdilute Radiesse rejuvenates skin quality at a deeper level, offering natural improvements that last well beyond the initial procedure.
What Is Hyperdilute Radiesse?
Radiesse is a dermal filler made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel. In its standard form, it has been used for years to restore facial volume, soften folds, and improve contour. When Radiesse is diluted with a saline and anesthetic solution, however, its properties change. Instead of acting primarily as a filler, it functions as a biostimulant that triggers the body to produce new collagen and elastin.
This gradual rebuilding process thickens the dermis, strengthens the skin, and reduces crepiness, creating a healthier and more youthful appearance. Results emerge over several months and can continue to improve as collagen remodeling takes place.
How Hyperdilute Radiesse Works
As we age, collagen and elastin — two proteins responsible for skin’s firmness and flexibility — naturally decline. This leads to thinner skin, laxity, fine lines, and the wrinkled, crepey look that many patients find bothersome.
Hyperdilute Radiesse addresses these concerns by stimulating fibroblasts, the skin’s collagen-producing cells. Over time, the treatment helps:
- Improve skin texture and elasticity
- Reduce fine lines and crepiness
- Enhance firmness and thickness
- Restore a subtle, natural “glow”
Because the results come from your body’s own collagen and elastin production, improvements appear gradually and last long after the initial injection has metabolized.


Treatment Areas
Hyperdilute Radiesse is especially effective in areas prone to thinning and laxity. Common treatment areas include:
- Lower face and jawline
- Neck
- Décolletage (chest)
- Arms
- Abdomen
- Above the knees
These regions often show signs of aging that traditional fillers cannot fully address. Hyperdilute Radiesse provides a regenerative approach to improve skin quality in both the face and body.

Hyperdilute Radiesse vs. Traditional Radiesse Filler
While both treatments use the same product, their effects and purposes differ:
Traditional Radiesse (filler use):
- Adds volume and structure.
- Most often used to restore fullness in the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and hands.
- Results are immediate and primarily volumizing.
Hyperdilute Radiesse (biostimulant use):
- Focuses on collagen stimulation rather than volume.
- Best for improving texture, tone, and elasticity in thin or crepey areas.
- Results appear gradually over weeks to months and continue to improve with time.
At Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Specialists, Radiesse is rarely used in its traditional filler form. Instead, Hyperdilute Radiesse has become the preferred approach for patients who want long-lasting improvements in skin quality rather than temporary volume.

Treatment Process
Hyperdilute Radiesse injections are performed in the comfort of our Newburgh office and take about 30 minutes.
Here’s what patients can expect:
- Topical anesthesia is applied for about 30 minutes beforehand to ensure comfort.
- Injections are placed in the targeted treatment area by Dr. Rubinstein himself or one of our experienced aesthetic injectors (PA or NP).
- No incisions or surgical techniques are required.
The procedure is very well tolerated, and patients find it far less invasive than surgical alternatives.

Recovery and Aftercare
One of the advantages of Hyperdilute Radiesse is that it requires little to no downtime. Most patients can return to work and regular activities immediately. To minimize swelling and bruising, the following guidelines may be recommended:
- Avoid high-intensity exercise for 24 hours.
- Expect mild redness, swelling, or bruising that resolves within a few days.
- Makeup can usually be applied the next day if desired.
Because the treatment stimulates your own collagen production, results are not immediate but become more noticeable over time.
Treatment Timeline and Results
Hyperdilute Radiesse is typically performed as a series of treatments:
Initial series
2–3 sessions spaced 8–12 weeks apart.
Maintenance
1 treatment every 12–18 months.
Many patients notice subtle improvements in skin hydration and texture after the first session. By the second treatment, skin often feels firmer and more resilient. Around the three- to four-month mark, collagen remodeling is in full effect, leading to thicker, smoother skin and a visible reduction in crepiness.
The benefits continue to build for several months as new collagen fibers mature. Patients often describe their skin as healthier, more elastic, and naturally refreshed. With ongoing maintenance every 12–18 months, these results can be sustained long term.
Risks and Considerations
Hyperdilute Radiesse is considered a very safe treatment when performed by trained injectors. Side effects are typically mild and temporary. These may include:
- Redness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites
- Mild tenderness
- Rare nodule formation (risk is extremely low with proper technique and aftercare)
It is important to note that using Radiesse in hyperdilute form is considered an off-label application. While Radiesse is FDA-approved as a dermal filler, its diluted use for collagen stimulation has not been specifically approved. Off-label treatments are common in aesthetic medicine and are widely performed due to their proven safety and effectiveness.
During your consultation, Dr. Rubinstein and his team will review your medical history, treatment goals, and any concerns to ensure this approach is appropriate for you.
Who Is a Candidate?
Hyperdilute Radiesse may be a good option for patients who want to:
- Improve skin texture, thickness, and elasticity
- Address crepiness in areas such as the neck, chest, arms, abdomen, or knees
- Achieve gradual, natural-looking improvements
- Avoid invasive surgery or long recovery times
- Complement other rejuvenation treatments
Patients with significant laxity may require additional or alternative procedures, which Dr. Rubinstein and his team will discuss during consultation.
