What You Should Know About Calcium Hydroxyapatite Filler

Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) fillers have emerged as a popular and effective solution in the realm of cosmetic dermatology. Known for their biocompatibility and versatility, these fillers are particularly effective for treating moderate to severe facial wrinkles and volume deficits. This article delves into the nature, benefits, application, and post-treatment care of calcium hydroxyapatite fillers, providing a thorough overview for those considering this cosmetic procedure.


What is Calcium Hydroxyapatite Filler?



Calcium hydroxyapatite is an injectable dermal filler consisting of microspheres suspended in an aqueous carboxymethylcellulose gel carrier. Once injected into the skin, the gel conductor fills the hollows beneath the skin, promoting elasticity and raising creases. Over time, macrophages in the body remove the gel, leaving the hydroxyapatite microspheres which stimulate endogenous collagen formation. This new collagen forms a fresh skin matrix, leading to continued improvement in skin quality even after the filler is entirely cleared from the body.

Injectable calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler, is a biocompatible, dermal filler which is used to improve the appearance of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the nasolabial folds, marionette lines and jawline.

Benefits of Calcium Hydroxyapatite Fillers



Calcium hydroxyapatite fillers offer several benefits over other types of dermal fillers, particularly hyaluronic acid fillers. While hyaluronic acid fillers excel in addressing finer lines, wrinkles, and enhancing lips with a subtle, natural look, calcium hydroxyapatite fillers are better suited for:

Treating deep wrinkles.

Restoring volume in areas with significant sagging or hollowing.

Creating more substantial structural enhancements.


Appropriate Applications for Calcium Hydroxyapatite Fillers



Injectable calcium hydroxyapatite is suitable for various facial areas, particularly those prone to deeper wrinkles and volume loss. Some of the key areas include: 

Wrinkles.

Nasolabial folds.

Marionette lines. 

Pre-jowl sulcus.

Chin lines.


Treatment Process



The treatment process for calcium hydroxyapatite fillers involves several steps to ensure safety and effectiveness:

1.    Thoroughly cleanse the area to be treated.

2. Disinfect the area with alcohol.

3. Apply Topical Lidocaine (if desired).

4. Using a cannula, treat the desired areas with the filler.

5. Post-treatment Care: Clean the treated areas and apply a post-treatment healing cream.


Caution & Side Effects

One critical aspect to note is that calcium hydroxyapatite fillers cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase products like Liporase, which are only effective on hyaluronic acid fillers. This underscores the importance of choosing an experienced practitioner for the procedure.


Side Effects of Calcium Hydroxyapatite Fillers

Calcium hydroxyapatite fillers are generally well-tolerated, but some side effects may occur. These can include local tenderness, inflammation, and redness, which typically resolve within hours or days after the treatment.


Post-treatment Care 



Post-treatment care for calcium hydroxyapatite fillers is quite simple:

Avoid applying pressure or massaging the treatment area.

Use cold compresses to soothe any discomfort


Calcium hydroxyapatite fillers represent a robust option for those seeking to address more pronounced signs of aging, such as deep wrinkles and volume loss.
