Belotero Balance is a hyaluronic acid (HA) based dermal filler recently approved by the FDA for the treatment or aesthetic correction of facial wrinkles and folds. The new dermal filler is as effective as all the other leading HA based dermal fillers available in the market today. It is a good alternative to other cornerstone products such as Juvederm and Restylane. The new filler can even be injected superficially to treat fine lines and wrinkles. You will however need the treatment done by an expert to expect the best outcomes.
Good candidates
If you have facial wrinkles or lines that make you look old but would prefer to look much younger, you may be a good candidate for treatment using Belotero Balance. When you visit Dr. Bloch for consultation, you will be advised if you qualify for the procedure and told what results you can expect. If you have any skin infection or inflammations, the doctor will advise to postpone your Belotero treatment until you fully heal.
Efficacy and safety
Belotero Balance offers one of the most effective and safest treatments of improving fine, moderate or severe facial wrinkles and lines. As a new-generation HA product, Belotero is designed in such a way that it can even work for superficial fine wrinkles and lines with a lower risk of causing lumps or bumps. Most of the other dermal fillers in the market today if injected superficially tend to cause a bluish discoloration due to their optical properties, but that issue is not a bigger risk with Belotero. Elasticity and cohesiveness are the two most important properties of Belotero Balance that makes it to evenly spread and integrate into the targeted tissues with every injection. Dr. Bloch as a expert with cosmetic dermal fillers provides Belotero Balance injections to achieve the desired aesthetic improvement.
What are the most common adverse events seen with BELOTERO BALANCE?
The most common local side effects seen with BELOTERO BALANCE were swelling, bruising, redness, hardening of the skin, pain, altered color or itching. Other side effects that have occurred with BELOTERO BALANCE include headache, swelling of the side of the nose, moderate cold sore, lip numbness, and lip dryness. Side effects were often mild to moderate and often resolved within 7 days.
The most popular category of wrinkle fillers is hyaluronic acid. Each type works in a slightly different way with varying results. Side effects are rare but can include redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. The filler may also show up under the skin as tiny bumps. This is a problem that often improves over time. How long the results last varies from several months to over a year or two. Some research shows that repeated injections may help stimulate the body’s own natural production of collagen. That will help reduce the number of lines and wrinkles. There is also some evidence that less filler is needed over time to achieve the same look.
