The only thing more frustrating than dealing with stubborn acne are the scars left behind long after your breakouts are gone. Fortunately, there is a treatment option that will get rid of those facial blemishes. Knox Dermatology offers Bellafill for acne scars, the only FDA-approved dermal filler on the market.
What is Bellafill for acne scars?
Bellafill® is a dermal filler designed to treat moderate to severe, atrophic, facial acne scars that appear on your cheeks. The injectable treatment must be administered in-office by a healthcare professional, and is considered to be non-invasive. Bellafill® effectively keeps acne scars away for up to five years, and provides natural-looking results that are immediately noticeable.
How does it work?
The combination of collagen and PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) beads raise the acne scars to the same level of the surrounding skin, therefore adding volume and fading imperfections. In addition, Bellafill® increases the production of collagen over time to provide continued restoration for long-term results.
Bellafill® vs other fillers
There are several dermal fillers on the market that treat facial wrinkles and deep folds, but Bellafill® is the only filler that is approved by the FDA to treat acne scarring. If you’re considering treatment to minimize wrinkles and not acne scarring, there are more options to choose from. However, Bellafill® injections last longer than other fillers which tend to dissolve quicker. If you choose Bellafill® for treatment, you will be visiting your provider less often and will save more money overall.
Is Bellafill® for you?
Dr. George Wooming will provide the best Bellafill® Dallas has to offer, but that does not mean the treatment is for everyone. If you still have active acne, are under the age of 21, or have a bovine collagen allergy the treatment is not recommended for you. Your Dallas skin specialist will need to go over your personal medical profile and history to determine if Bellafill® is the right treatment option for your skin.
