Before/After Bellafill

Here are some BEFORE/AFTER Bellafill picts (4 syringes Bellafill).

On March 1, 2016 I had 5 more syringes injected, which will be all for now, and the first application of Silikon 1000 injected into my lips. I will post those picts at post 6 months.

I know of a doctor who gets great reviews. He uses silikon 1000 for the lips and nose. Let me know how you like your new lips. Did it hurt and swell a lot?
I have a high tolerance for pain, and the little needle injections, from the Bellafill, were more annoying than really painful. However, when he injected the Silikon 1000, into my lips, it REALLY, REALLY hurt. The needle seems like it goes inside, really deeply. Yes, I had a circumscribed, dark bruise around my lower lip for a week.

As I became older, I worked very hard fighting wrinkles and fine lines. Volume loss never occurred to me, but when my once full cheeks started to resemble the mouth folds of a bulldog, I knew it was time to do something. I Googled "smile lines," and my search eventually led me to Bellafill (previously known as Artefill). I chose this filler, as it is supposed to last at least 5 years or more. I compare it to buying the house vs. just renting it, as one does with the temporary fillers.
I found Gregory Laurence, purchased 4 syringes, and had the first 3 syringes injected into my cheeks and forehead regions. To date, I have not suffered any complications; although, I will have him retouch the left side next week (the 6 month mark when results are finally at their optimum). Now I feel like wearing make-up again and no longer avoid mirrors.

Good for you, thank you for your post! Did you have any injected around the mouth or did the injections in your cheeks provide the lift?

The injections in my cheeks provided the needed lift.
I love love love Bellafill !
How much was Bellafill per syringe? I live in Memphis also. I have an appt with Dr. Eby next week for fillers. Wondering if I should go with Bellafill? You look terrific!
I don't think you can buy Bellafill, by the syringe, as it comes in "packages" of 5 syringes. The cost is $3800.
One cannot buy singles of Bellafill, it only comes in a package deal. The first time I paid $3800 for 5 syringes. Last month (7 months later) Dr. Laurence had a "special deal" on the Bellafill ($3800 for 6 syringes), and I bought that deal as well. However, I've only used 9 syringes total in my face, and have 2 left in storage.
It seems like one needs more of the Bellafill, than Juvederm, as one syringe doesn't provide the "oomph" needed.
Two different derm I used allowed me to buy 1 or 2 or more syringes. All they have to do is u open the box and charge you per syringe
That's exactly what I did! Bought a 5 pack for $3800.
I cant tell which are before and which are after? You look beautiful in all
Oh Lawd, I look like a little witch in the "before" picts. They are picts 2 & 4. The last picture is what I looked like at 24 (22 years ago!)
I see minimal differences in before and after photos. You look great! Glad your happy with it!
Hello there. I am so happy to read your review. Dr. Laurence did an extensive amount of work on me yesterday although I'd had a breast augmentation done in the past. I also wanted Bellafill and had 5 syringes added along with some HA for my lips and Botox between the eyebrows. An immediate improvement!
