Any knowledge of Bellafill causing severe problems for people many years down the road? Even if everything is done exactly right? I’m reading that facial aging may not coincide with the permanent PMMA material and you may end up looking strange later on in life. Or the spheres could “activate” somehow and it could cause complications that can only e resolved by surgery. Is a poor reaction later in life dependent upon the person, assuming everything was done by the book?

Answer: Safety profile of Bellafill Bellafill has been studied longer than any other filler. With over 675,000 syringes, the complication rate is 0.14% long-term. With any type of filler there will be complications, even with HA fillers. The absolutely most important factor in this product is the injector. This needs to be sterilely injected with cannulas for optimal safety. I have 8 syringes in my face so I believe in this product. The aging face will continue to loose volume so more filling is going to be needed to maintain your look as you get older. It is a matter of maintenance. I have many patients which look the same or better after being with me for the past 10-15 years by doing regular anti-aging treatments including filler, neuromodulators, lasers, RF, and skincare. I call it "age freezing".

Answer: Bellafill is safe and effective Bellafill is an amazing product. It lasts for 5 years, so patients love it. It has also been studied heavily and studies show it has a great safety profile. You may be referring to Artoplast and Artocol which were older forms of PMMA which caused issues and were never FDA approved. You do not need surgery to remove Bellafill. There are other ways of minimizing it.
