13. HIV Lipoatrophy Study
Conclusions
• Radiesse is safe
– No reports of serious adverse events
– Minor AE’s resolved within 7 days
• Radiesse is effective
– 100% of patients were improved through 12 months
– > 90% of patients were improved through 18 months
demonstrating 1 year longevity
– All primary and secondary endpoints were met
– > 90% patient satisfaction through 18 months
15. Study Overview
• Objective: To assess the radiographic
appearance of Radiesse when injected into the
soft tissues of the face
• 58 patients treated in Vancouver, Canada by Dr.
Alastair Carruthers
– 28 patients: Long-term facial lipoatrophy (>12 Months)
– 15 patients: Short-term facial lipoatrophy (<1 Month)
– 15 patients: Short-term nasolabial fold (<1 Month)
• Images sent to blinded independent evaluators
in New York, directed by Dr. Marc Liebeskind
19. No Obstruction of Underlying
Structures
Common dental work results in interference
20. Radiographic Findings
Summary
• Radiesse is not consistently evident on X-ray
• Radiesse is clearly visible on CT Scan
– Distinctly separate from bone
– For facial soft tissue applications, Radiesse is visible
bi-laterally (not typical of an adverse clinical finding)
– Radiesse volume dissipates over time
• No evidence that Radiesse migrates
• Radiesse as a radiographic material does not
pose a safety concern
