The procedure of a filler injection
Before treatment with Radiesse, your doctor will explain the treatment to you in detail. Blood-thinning medication should be discontinued if possible to minimize the risk of bruising. The injection sites are thoroughly disinfected before treatment. The Radiesse is then injected using a blunt cannula or fine needle.
If you are sensitive to pain, an anesthetic cream can be applied beforehand. You can collect this from our practice at any time beforehand. It is applied 30-60 minutes before the appointment. The injection sites can also be pre-cooled using a cold pack or a local anesthetic can be applied.
The effect is visible immediately in the case of volume augmentation, but only after 2-3 months when used to improve skin structure.
Prices
1 syringe = CHF 600, each additional syringe CHF 500. Standard dosage for individual regions.
If you are not sure which aesthetic treatments are best suited to your individual needs, we recommend a no-obligation consultation with one of our dermatologists. The consultation costs CHF 100 and takes about 20 minutes. This amount will be deducted from the cost of your aesthetic treatment. The consultation costs and aesthetic services must be paid directly on site after the procedure. In order to be able to assess your facial skin in the best possible way, please come to the aesthetic consultation without make-up.
The following payment conditions apply to so-called self-pay services, which are not covered by TARMED and are therefore not covered by health insurance: 30 days total amount, or the option to make partial payments of your choice with attractive interest rates (minimum payment 5% of the outstanding amount per month). In case of insufficient creditworthiness, no invoice can be issued and the amount is due immediately after the treatment on site. If necessary, creditworthiness can be clarified in advance.
Cancellation of appointment
Appointments that have already been made can be canceled free of charge up to 24 hours before the appointment. Please inform us by phone, email,Whatsapp or a voice message on the answering machine. To cancel an appointment booked online, use the cancel button in the confirmation email. If an appointment is canceled less than 24 hours before the appointment or not canceled at all (no-show), the patient is liable for compensation. If a treatment can no longer be carried out due to a patient delay, the obligation to pay compensation also applies.
