What is BellaFill?
Aging usually makes the skin lose its youthful elasticity and develop wrinkles, fine lines, and more. Bellafill is the first-ever non-resorbable dermal filler made with PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate beads) and a bovine collagen gel carrier.
The Bellafill dermal filler can help with various cosmetic augmentation procedures. The filler has polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres and a collagen base that can treat moderate to severe acne scar issues as well as skin folds such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
As collagen is a naturally-occurring substance in the skin, it blends with the PMMA beads to create a support matrix. The procedure takes only 15 to 30 minutes and gives you a rejuvenated and youthful skin texture.
Due to its non-invasive treatment process, you can return to your regular activities soon after your Bellafill sessions. The benefits are immediate, and the filler helps produce collagen that rejuvenates your skin from within.

Bellafil Potential risks
Bellafill is a safe and effective dermal filler that can help you achieve natural-looking results. The treatment utilizes PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) beads, which are suspended in a smooth collagen gel and injected into the skin. It is important to note that there are potential risks associated with Bellafill injections:
• Severe Allergies: Severe allergies to the components of Bellafill can occur, so it is important to be aware of any allergies you may have before beginning treatment. A skin test on the forearm must be performed to check for any allergic reaction at least one month before having this filler performed.
• Persistent Swelling: Inflammation and swelling at the injection site may persist for several days after treatment. If this persists for more than a few days, contact your doctor.
• Common Side Effects: Common side effects of Bellafill include redness, itching, tenderness, bruising, lumps, and discoloration at the injection site. These should resolve within a few days.
• Infection: Rarely, infections can occur at the injection site despite proper sterile techniques being followed during treatment.
Am I a good candidate for Bellafil?
Bellafill is a dermal filler that provides long-lasting results for individuals who are looking to reduce acne scarring, marionette lines, and deep smile lines. The product contains polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres as well as collagen, which help to improve skin texture and elasticity. Clinical studies have shown that this dermal filler can provide results that last up to five years with proper maintenance.
When it comes to the treatment of acne scarring, Bellafill helps to fill in pitted or shallow scars while also stimulating new collagen production. This process helps to restore the skin’s volume and smooth out any existing indentations resulting from the scars. Additionally, this dermal filler is an excellent choice for treating marionette lines around the mouth as well as deep smile lines. By injecting small amounts of Bellafill beneath the surface of these areas, patients can enjoy a more youthful appearance without having to undergo surgery.
Overall, Bellafill is an ideal dermal filler for those looking for long-lasting results in treating acne scarring, marionette lines, and deep smile lines. The treatment is relatively quick and requires little to no downtime. Additionally, the filler works to stimulate collagen production, which helps to restore volume and elasticity in the skin for a more youthful appearance. Depending on your individual needs, you will likely need multiple sessions of Bellafill in order to achieve your desired results.
Bellafill Preparation
Preparing for your Bellafill fillers will help you gain effective and long-lasting collagen regeneration results. The treatment can improve your skin’s elasticity and nourish it from within.
Scheduling your appointment with a week’s notice can help you properly prepare for Bellafill and achieve more beautiful skin from within. The following tips can help you prepare for non-surgical dermal fillers:
Pause Medications
A week before your Bellafill appointment, stop taking daily non-prescription medications with blood-thinning properties. These include fish oil capsules, ibuprofen, aspirin (unless prescribed by your physician), and vitamin E pills. It is also best to abstain from alcoholic drinks during this period. Drinking can make your skin more vulnerable and sensitive to bruising.
Ask for an Allergy Test
If you have any known or suspected allergies, make sure to share them with your surgeon. Opt for a skin allergy test so that your non-surgical treatment does not cause a reaction and lead to skin complications.
Opt for Arnica
Arnica is a natural pain reliever and can help you treat swelling and bruising after your first Bellafill treatment. You can find this remedy at both health food stores and online.
Before taking arnica, talk to the team at the Aesthetic Surgery Center. Upon approval, you can take three to five arnica tablets under your tongue the day before and the day after your treatment.
How Does Bellafill Work?
Your surgeon will inject the Bellafill dermal filler into your skin using an ultrafine needle. These blunt-tipped needles minimize bruising and reduce soreness. Your provider will inject the filler into the scars or facial folds and wrinkles that bother you.
Bellafill can plump up the skin as a collagen stimulator, improve facial depressions, and reduce facial lines. Thanks to PMMA microspheres, Bellafill has enduring effects that usually last longer than many surgical cosmetic procedures. It is also non-resorbable, meaning the body does not absorb it, as with many other fillers.
After the treatment, your body will begin to produce natural collagen that helps improve your skin. Bellafill blends with microspheres to treat wrinkles, fine lines, folds, and acne scars.
While immediate results are seen due to the PMMA and cow derived collagen, the cow derived collagen diminishes over the first three months. Your skin will react to the PMMA and generate natural collagen starting 2-3 months after the injection session. Generally, 2-3 additional sessions are administered spaced 6 months apart to achieve optimal volume augmentation. Eventually, your body’s natural collagen will surpass the amount of collagen stimulator and refine your skin naturally. You can then enjoy youthful, soft, plump, and elastic skin that radiates health naturally.
Bellafil Cost
The exact cost of Bellafill will depend on the area being treated, the number of syringes used, and the individual provider’s rates. Generally speaking; however, it is estimated that one syringe of Bellafill costs approximately $1,500. To get an exact cost for your individual needs and determine number of syringes required, it is best to consult with a board-certified physician who is experienced in performing this procedure. It is important to keep in mind that results can vary, and touch-up treatments may be necessary to maintain desired results
Bellafill Recovery Period
After a Bellafill treatment series, the skin usually takes three to six months to completely repair and improve after the final appointment. This is because it takes around three months minimum for the body’s natural collagen count to increase.
The body’s collagen stimulation improves over time due to the PMMA microspheres in the dermal filler. Your cosmetic surgeon will likely space out your first and second treatments with 6 months in between.
The good news is that after your acne scar treatment with Bellafill, you can expect to return to normal activities immediately. Most patients experience temporary swelling and redness, both of which should subside within a few days. If you’re considering injectable fillers for acne scars, Bellafill is an excellent choice due to its long-lasting results and minimal recovery time.
