Acne Scars (Bellafill®)

Topical treatments, chemical peels, RF microneedling, and laser resurfacing are among the current available treatment options for acne scars. However, some of these treatments may require significant downtime. In some cases, results can take time to emerge — and other treatments often lack rigorous, controlled data to support their safety or efficacy. Bellafill® is the only filler that's approved by the FDA to treat acne scars, providing an entirely new treatment choice for patients.Is Bellafill® safe? Yes. Bellafill® is the only FDA-approved dermal filler for the correction of moderate to severe atrophic, distensible facial acne scars on the cheeks in patients 21 and over. Bellafill® has been proven to provide both immediate and lasting results in rigorous clinical studies, with demonstrated effectiveness, safety, and high rates of patient satisfaction. As with many injectable fillers, you may experience bruising, itchiness, pain, swelling, redness, discoloration, lumpiness, bumps, acne, or increased sensitivity at the treatment site. These side effects usually go away by themselves within a few days. Depending on the severity of the scars, Bellafill injections may be added to a course of RF Microneedling.

In a clinical study on acne scarring, Bellafill® remained safe and effective for patients through twelve months. In a separate clinical study on smoothing out nasolabial folds (smile lines), its safety and effectiveness were established through five years. Your individual treatment plan will take these findings into account and develop a schedule that works best for you.
