Understanding HarmonyCa.
HarmonyCa is a dual-component injectable that combines hyaluronic acid (HA) with calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA). The HA gives immediate structural support and contour, and the CaHA encourages your own collagen production over time.
So it does two jobs at once: it supports the face now and improves tissue quality gradually. HarmonyCa is given by our experienced physicians, who match it to your anatomy and the changes you'd like to address.
How does HarmonyCa work?
The hyaluronic acid component gives immediate support by filling space within the tissue. Calcium hydroxylapatite works differently: it's a biostimulatory component that supports new collagen formation over time. Part of your result shows straight away, and more develops gradually as collagen builds.
What HarmonyCa improves
Our experienced physicians use HarmonyCa for facial support and contour, including:
- Midface support and cheek volume loss
- Jawline definition and early jowling
- Facial volume loss after weight loss and the broader structural changes of facial aging
The areas treated and the amount used are planned around your anatomy, skin quality and overall treatment plan. HarmonyCa isn't used in the lips, which we treat with hyaluronic acid fillers only. Confidential penile girth enhancement is provided by Dr. Gidon Frame and Dr. Teri Fisher.

Anti-Aging Medical & Laser Clinic can help you explore this technology, related treatments, and connected concerns.
Benefits of HarmonyCa
HarmonyCa gives immediate support and also improves collagen-related tissue quality over time, so your result looks natural now and keeps refining. It fits well alongside other treatments in a facial plan and is well suited to areas that need both structural support and gradual firming. Individual results vary.
Safety, side effects and considerations
HarmonyCa is an injectable medical treatment, given at our clinic by our experienced physicians after an assessment. Your physician can use a numbing cream or local anesthetic (lidocaine) for comfort, and chooses between a fine needle and a blunt-tipped cannula for each area.
Common and temporary
- Swelling, redness and tenderness around the injection points
- Bruising
Less common risks
- Lumps or nodules under the skin
- Infection
- An allergic reaction
- A delayed reaction or swelling weeks or months later, which can be set off by dental work, a vaccination or an illness such as the flu
Blocked blood vessel (vascular occlusion). Like all fillers, HarmonyCa carries a rare but serious risk of entering or compressing a blood vessel, which can reduce blood flow to the skin and, very rarely, affect vision. Our physicians know how to spot and manage this quickly. Please phone the clinic right away on 604-261-9121 if you see pale or white patches (blanching), dusky or mottled skin, pain that's building, or any change in your eyesight. If your eyesight changes and we can't be reached at once, go to an emergency department.
The calcium hydroxylapatite component doesn't dissolve in the way a hyaluronic acid filler does, so treatment is planned conservatively from the start.
When treatment may need to wait
- An infection, cold sore or skin flare-up near the area to be treated
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- An autoimmune condition, reviewed with your physician first
- A bleeding disorder, or medicines and supplements that thin the blood. Talk to your doctor before changing any prescribed medicine.
- A known allergy to lidocaine, hyaluronic acid or any other component of HarmonyCa
- Upcoming or recent dental treatment, vaccination or illness, so your appointment can be timed well
Aftercare
Hold off on hard workouts, saunas, hot tubs and rubbing or massaging the treated area for a short time, unless your physician tells you otherwise. Your aftercare sheet sets out the details for your areas.

FAQ
Questions about HarmonyCa.
A traditional hyaluronic acid filler provides volume and contour by placing a gel in the tissue. HarmonyCa also contains calcium hydroxylapatite, a biostimulatory component that supports collagen production over time, so your result keeps refining after treatment.
HarmonyCa is used for facial support and contour, such as the midface, cheeks and jawline. Your physician plans the exact areas around your anatomy and skin quality.
No. At our clinic, lips are treated with hyaluronic acid fillers only, which suit the softness and movement of the lips. HarmonyCa is reserved for areas that benefit from structural support.
Yes. HarmonyCa often works as one part of a broader facial rejuvenation plan. Depending on your concern, your physician may pair it with another injectable, a skin treatment or an energy-based treatment.
