Does Bellafill lift like cheek implants or radiesse can?

Bellafill has published the longest and largest filler safety study, through five years, showing high patient satisfaction and long-term safety and effectiveness. It is worth considering Bellafill to replace your usual dermal filler injections, since it is much longer lasting. We often use Bellafill in the cheeks in our office, I would recommend seeking a physician who has been injecting Bellafill for many years. 

I think that Dr. Prendiville offered a very sharp criticism of Bellafill and stated "that most" would advise against the use of Bellafill in the cheeks. I would argue that it reflects a somewhat outdated viewpoint and one that reflects a lack of experience and finesse with the product. I have years of experience with Bellafill and find it an invaluable tool to help address the midface/cheek area. It simply takes a thoughtful, meticulous and careful approach to get the treatment right. In fact because cheek implants need to placed through the mouth (oral cavity) which is an area with a high concentration of bacteria, the risk of infection or late extrusion is significant. So I would seek out a well trained physician with the confidence the use Bellafill correctly and you will get beautiful results. I have hundreds of happy patients that can attest to that!
