Calcium hydroxyapatite is not a new idea in dermal fillers; it was the ingredient in Radiesse, the product developed by Bioform Medical, which was acquired by Merz in 2010 (#msg-45071380).

Adding calcium hydroxyapatite microspheres to a HA-based filler sounds intriguing, but it’s unclear whether this can provide a better outcome than combining multiple HA-based fillers, as many injectors currently do.
