How to Prepare for Your Radiesse Glute Injection Consultation
1. Do Your Research – Know What You Want
Before your consultation, it’s a great idea to familiarize yourself with Radiesse and how it works. Knowing what to expect will help you feel more confident and ensure you're on the same page as your provider. Radiesse is a collagen-stimulating injectable that can provide natural volume, lift, and skin tightening in your glutes, so make sure this aligns with your goals. If you're considering the liquid BBL option, Radiesse can deliver full, rounded, and natural-looking curves—without the need for surgery. If you’re unsure, don’t worry! That’s what the consultation is for—your provider will walk you through the entire process, answer all your questions, and help you set realistic expectations.
2. Be Clear About Your Goals
When you meet with your provider, be prepared to discuss your body goals in detail. Are you looking for fuller, more lifted glutes? Do you want to smooth out cellulite or reduce hip dips? The more specific you are, the better your provider will be able to tailor your treatment to meet your needs. If you’re going for the liquid BBL look, let them know! Don’t be shy—this is your moment to get clear on what you want and ensure that Radiesse is the right fit for you.
3. Avoid Blood Thinners and Alcohol for 48 Hours
To minimize the risk of bruising or swelling, it’s important to avoid blood-thinning medications and alcohol for at least 48 hours before your consultation. This includes things like aspirin, ibuprofen, and even certain vitamins or supplements like fish oil or vitamin E. If you’re on any prescription medications, be sure to mention them to your provider so they can give you tailored advice. The less your blood is thinned, the smoother your treatment will go.
4. Know Your Medical History
Your provider will ask about your medical history, allergies, and any previous injectable treatments you’ve had. Be sure to share any information that could impact your treatment, including prior surgeries or skin conditions. Radiesse is safe for most people, but this step ensures that you’re a good candidate and helps your provider create the best treatment plan for you. Being upfront about your health history ensures the best, most personalized care.
5. Dress Comfortably and Wear Loose Clothing
The day of your consultation, we recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. This will allow your provider to easily assess your glutes and make any necessary markings for treatment. You’ll be able to move around easily, and it’s one less thing to worry about when it comes time for your session. Plus, feeling comfortable during your appointment will put you at ease and help you focus on the consultation itself.
6. Set Realistic Expectations
While Radiesse is an amazing option for non-surgical glute enhancement, it’s important to have realistic expectations about what it can do. Radiesse can lift, plump, and tighten, but it’s not a magical fix-all. Your provider will help you understand what’s achievable based on your body type and goals. If you're aiming for the liquid BBL look, you can expect a natural fullness and lifted appearance—but larger volume gains may require additional treatments or combining with other non-invasive procedures. Working with your provider to set expectations will ensure you love the final results.
7. Ask All the Questions You Have
This is your opportunity to learn about the treatment, ask questions, and clarify any concerns you may have. Don’t be afraid to ask your provider about their experience with Radiesse, what to expect during the procedure, any potential side effects, and how long results will last. The more informed you are, the more comfortable you'll feel moving forward with the treatment. Plus, your provider will be happy to answer any questions you may have to ensure you're confident in your decision.
8. Consider Your Post-Treatment Plan
It’s also helpful to consider your post-treatment plans before your consultation. While Radiesse offers minimal downtime, there are still a few things you should know about aftercare, like avoiding vigorous exercise for a few days and not massaging the treated area. Your provider will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, but having an idea of what to expect post-treatment will help you feel more prepared.
