What is Bellafill?
Bellafill is a dual-action dermal filler proven to be safe and effective for the correction of nasolabial folds (smile lines) for 5 or more years and is the only FDA approved dermal filler on the market for the correction of distensible acne scars on the face.
Bellafill works differently than other dermal fillers. Bellafill is composed of tiny polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres suspended in a collagen gel base. Once injected, the collagen gel provides immediate, soft, natural-looking results. Over time the collagen is broken down by your body as it does with all other fillers, however, the PMMA microspheres work by creating a “scaffolding” for the development of your own collagen for long lasting results.

Facial Volume Loss
Unfortunately aging is going to happen to us all. Many seek the use of dermal fillers for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles however these results are only temporary. The most commonly used dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, which provides an immediate result but often lasts only 6-12 months at the most. That means that every 6-12 months that filler will need to be repeated to maintain the desired effect. That’s an expensive endeavor!!
Bellafill’s dual-action provides the immediate effects of a dermal filler that we all desire while also providing long-lasting results for more than 5 years, thereby significantly decreasing the need for repeat injections to maintain your desired results. That, in turn, saves you a considerable amount of time and money!!
Acne Scarring
Nothing is more frustating and damaging to one’s self esteem than acne and the scars that result from it. Inflammation beneath the skin during an acne breakout can lead to irregular tissue healing and the loss of collagen once the acne lesion is gone. The result is an uneven skin surface from the subsequent scars. Those scars can be difficult to conceal and although the scar’s discoloration may fade over time the uneven texture will not go away without some external assistance.
Bellafill is the one and only FDA approved injectable dermal filler for the treatment of acne scars. Bellafill works best on distensible acne scars – scars that disappear when the skin is stretched, however it can improve the appearance of non-distensible scarring as well. Bellafill provides an immediate and long lasting correction to acne scarring.
Treatments takes approximately one hour. Results last 5 or more years!
