It’s no secret that dermal fillers are one of the most popular and effective options for restoring volume in the skin. There’s just one problem: they don’t last long. In fact, most dermal fillers wear off between 6 and 18 months, which leaves you right back at square one. If you are looking for a dermal filler that lasts longer, keep reading! We’ll take a look at Bellafill®, which can provide results that last as long as 5 years.
What is Bellafill®?
Bellafill® is a dermal filler product that, like many other dermal fillers, can be used to correct wrinkles, folds and volume loss in the face. We typically use Bellafill® for what are known as “resting” folds and wrinkles, which are the wrinkles that are visible when the face is in a resting, neutral position.
How Does Bellafill® Last So Long?
The Bellafill® formula has two main ingredients, a collagen gel and particles known as microspheres. Upon injection, the collagen gel is absorbed by the skin in a matter of weeks, which triggers the natural production of new collagen in the skin. These microspheres, however, are not absorbed, and they instead provide a foundation for new collagen in the body. In the months following treatment, the body produces new collagen, which lasts much longer than any dermal filler product can. This is the reason that the results last up to five years; natural collagen persists for many years!
Why Choose Bellafill®?
The Bellafill® formula can be an ideal option for patients who don’t want to receive regular injections, either due to the maintenance involved or due to the cost. With Bellafill®, you only need to receive injections every five years to maintain your results, compared to the more frequent treatments required to maintain the results of other products. Furthermore, the Bellafill® treatment is very cost-efficient compared to a dermal filler treatment plan that would require several touch-up treatments over the years.
