Radiesse® Dilute & Hyperdilute Treatment in Northampton
Patients from Kettering, Burton Latimer and Northampton come to us for Radiesse® Dilute when they want to improve the quality and firmness of their skin itself — not add volume — across the face, neck, decollete or hands.

How Dilution Changes Everything
Radiesse® in its standard form is a volumising dermal filler — firm enough to provide structural support to areas like the jawline and cheeks, and clinically proven to stimulate collagen production over time. But its properties are not fixed. When the concentration is adjusted, its behaviour changes fundamentally: Radiesse® Dilute, mixed to a lower concentration, becomes a softer, more spreadable product. It loses its volumising properties but retains its collagen-stimulating effect, improving the quality and firmness of the skin itself rather than adding structure.
The Concerns It Addresses
Because it can be applied over large areas and works to improve skin quality rather than add volume, Radiesse® Dilute and Hyperdilute opens up treatment possibilities that conventional fillers cannot address: skin laxity and crepiness of the face, neck and decollete, loss of skin firmness and elasticity in the lower face and jowl area, and skin quality improvement on the hands. It is also particularly effective when combined with energy-based treatments such as Ultherapy®.
A Gradual, Building Result
Like Sculptra®, Radiesse® Dilute and Hyperdilute work over time rather than immediately, typically given as a course with the number of sessions depending on the area treated. Treatment is delivered by Dr John Tanqueray, usually via a cannula for larger areas to allow even distribution through the tissue. Discomfort is minimal, with mild swelling or occasional bruising settling within a few days.
Other Treatments to Consider
Radiesse® Dilute pairs particularly well with Ultherapy® for skin laxity, and is one of several collagen-stimulating options alongside Gouri® and Sculptra®. For hand-specific concerns, see Hands, Neck & Chest.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from standard Radiesse®?
Standard Radiesse® adds volume; the diluted version loses that volumising property but keeps the collagen-stimulating effect, making it suited to skin quality rather than structure.
Does it hurt, and is there downtime?
Discomfort is minimal; you may see mild swelling or occasional bruising that settles within a few days.
How many sessions will I need?
This is typically given as a course, with the number of sessions and spacing depending on the area treated and the degree of improvement sought — your clinician will agree a plan at consultation.
Can it be combined with Ultherapy®?
Yes — the two are often used together, particularly for skin laxity of the face and neck, where they complement each other well.
