Can Artefill over Stimulate Collagen?
It is possible to overcorrect with Artefill. Once the carrier collagen dissipates in several months, the PMMA microspheres become covered with your own collagen and stay suspended in the tissues. If too much Artefill is Injected, it can lead to a visible bump. For this reason it is important to be conservative, meticulous, and not overcorrect with the injection. A well done Artefill treatment can give many years of excellent results
If a person has Juvederm in their NL folds and wants to supplement with ArteFill also, can the two be injected within a couple of months apart? I have received 1 injection of Juvederm in my NL folds and in two months would like to go back and get an injection of ArteFill in the same area. My Doc said this is OK. Would like to here other comments on this.
Artefill can be injected under the Juvederm. It should be injected in aprogressive manner the firsat treatment initially after the collagen test has been done and the second treatment 3 to 6 months later, with understanding it may require 2 treatments.
Doe Artefill Work for Frown Lines?
I have had excellent results using Artefill for frown lines. Additionally, I reviewed photographs for the 5 year results from Artefill and all results were long lasting and natural. I would say that using ArteFill or Juvederm in this area would be improved by using Botox as well to inhibit the muscle activity that causes the "eleven" lines
