I have very mild nasal labial folds that I'd like to fill in. How many syringes of Bellafill do you think I'd need?
Answer: Beware of Bellafil: Permanent Fillers Can Mean Permanent Complications Down The Road While the idea of a permanent filler is admittedly enticing, its use carries with it a real potential risk. Permanent fillers, such as silicone, alcamid and Bellafil possess the potential to give rise not only to immediate post-treatment lumps and bumps, but to nodules that may appear five, ten and even twenty years later, especially if the treated skin is manipulated by dental work, trauma or surgery. What's more, these complications can be difficult to sometimes nearly impossible to treat even surgically without leaving scars itself. Even more so, what may look nice today, may look downright odd ten years down the road when changes in the surrounding skin and underlying tissue takes place with aging, but the permanent filler does not move or change. The use of a natural filler, such as hyaluronic acid, avoids all of the above issues, and since it is naturally metabolized with time, additional filler may be added in the future to blend with any age-related changes that have taken place by that time. Make sure that you check this out thoroughly before proceeding and be sure that you are consulting with an experienced, board certified aesthetic physician. Best of luck.

Answer: How many syringes of Bellafill needed? I think that 1 syringe of Bellafill per session will be enough to treat your nasolabial folds, but Bellafill does normally require more than one treatment to give the desired gradual results.

Answer: Nasolabial folds -- Fillers (juvederm, radiesse, restylane, belotero), sculptra, lasers, microneedling/prp, ultherapy, threads folds take more than yo uthink however, most often we do 1-2 syringes a side , wait 6-12 weeks and keep adding from there till happy. folds are often not just volume loss however, they often need lifting with threads, tightening with morpheus, and fillers above such as in the cheek/midface area. I suggesty ou go to an expert and get a virutal consult as we see clients in NY every 2 months. also starting dermalrolling at home will make a big difference in the tightness of that area (weekly treatment see package on emeragecosmetics.com). For facial rejuvenation, 1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling 2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors 3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel/halo Viva, Co2/Erbium 4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill 5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting 6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest 7) deep microneedling RF like Fractora/morpheus8 for tightening of the skin 8) Vascular laser like vbeam/excel V or BBL forever young treatment every quarter (3-4 months) Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Bellafill to nasolabial lines you will need only one syringe, your nasolabial folds are very mild. You can even bank some of the syringe contents if the entire syringe is not used. Then you can use the remainder at a later date prior to the product expiration date
