Bellafill®
What Is Bellafill®?
Bellafill® is a revolutionary dermal filler designed to provide long-lasting results for individuals seeking smoother, rejuvenated skin. Approved by Health Canada, Bellafill® is a unique cosmetic solution known for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and improving pitted acne scars. Unlike traditional fillers, Bellafill® continues working after it is injected, stimulating natural collagen production to deliver results that can last up to 5 years.
Why Choose Bellafill®?
Bellafill® stands out as a trusted option for individuals who want a durable, effective treatment for facial rejuvenation. Key benefits include:
- Long-Lasting Results: Bellafill®’s effects can last up to 5 years, making it one of the most durable dermal fillers available.
- Immediate Improvement: Patients often notice visible enhancements right after their treatment.
- Dual Action: It provides instant volume and supports long-term collagen stimulation for continued skin improvement.
- Clinically Proven Safety: Backed by extensive research, Bellafill® is safe and effective for improving facial contour, nasolabial folds, and acne scars.
How Does Bellafill® Work?
Bellafill® contains two major components:
- Smooth collagen gel (80%): Provides immediate volume and lift to the treated areas.
- Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres (20%): These tiny microspheres remain in the skin and create a scaffold for natural collagen production over time. This dual-action mechanism ensures both immediate results and long-lasting improvements in skin texture and elasticity.
Thanks to its 2 innovative components, Bellafill creates instant results that you can enjoy as soon as you leave the office. As the original collagen gel fades away, your body naturally replaces it with your own collagen around the microspheres, for unparalleled long-term smoothness.
Bellafill® for Wrinkles and Acne Scars
Bellafill® is versatile, offering effective solutions for:
- Wrinkle Reduction: Smooth fine lines and deeper wrinkles to achieve a more youthful appearance. Bellafill works well in areas such as smile lines (nasolabial folds).
- Acne Scar Treatment: Improve the appearance of pitted or depressed acne scars by adding volume and stimulating collagen production, leaving skin looking smoother and more even.

What to Expect During Your Bellafill® Treatment
- A Bellafill test treatment is performed a minimum of one month before your first treatment. The test treatment involves the injection of a small amount of collagen into the skin of the forearm. This step checks for an allergic reaction such as swelling, redness, itching, or pain. The results are assessed after one month. If there is no reaction then you can proceed with your treatment plan.
- The treatment area is cleansed and prepared.
- A trained doctor administers precise injections of Bellafill® to the targeted areas. Laughing gas is offered if you are nervous or worried about receiving injections. Patients tolerate this treatment well.
- The session is quick, often completed within 30-60 minutes, with minimal downtime. Patients can resume most activities immediately after treatment, though some may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising, which typically subsides within a day or two.
Results and Longevity of Bellafill®
Bellafill® delivers immediate visible results, such as smoother skin and improved volume. Over time, the PMMA microspheres support ongoing collagen production, ensuring lasting benefits. For wrinkle treatments, results can persist for up to 5 years, while acne scar improvements are durable and transformative.
