Can Bellafill works on every scar type?

Question

Does Bellafill works on any scar types I have seen reviews that some said it works on every scar types and some said it only works on rolling scars types and how much percentage of scars that it can remove or fade

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Bellafill cannot be used for many types of inflamed scars. Our office specializes in the removal of Artefill and Bellafill granulomas if there is a surgical treatment. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Thanks for sharing.  Bellafill is FDA approved for acne scars.  However there are different type of acne scars and its is indicated for "distensible" acne scars.  If you can gently stretch the skin with your fingers around the acne scar and it looks better then the results will be better.  Other traumatic scars that are distensible would likely improve as well.

William Groff, DO · Answer

Bellafill is FDA approved to treat atrophic, distensible acne scars on the face. These are depressed scars that can disappear if manually stretched. Bellafill does not actually remove or fade scars; it works by lifting the scar, making it even with the rest of the surrounding skin. For raised scars or deeper acne scars such as icepick or boxcar scars, a different treatment would work better.

Bellafill can work on raising depressed scars but won't get rid of all scars such as raised or keloid scars. A combination of lasers is needed for other facial scars. Best, Dr. Green
