In general, it takes about 6 months to see optimal results from Bellafill. If you are still unsatisfied after this time, I recommend considering 5fu/steroid injections and treatments like Venus Legacy or Exilis to even out the results. It's crucial to consult with an expert who has experience in treating filler complications. Best regards

Since Bellafill contains a small amount of PMMA microbeads that stimulate your own collagen production, it is important to wait at least 6 months to see the final results. Initially, you will absorb the bovine collagen that provides the volume, and over the following months, your own collagen will replace it. This transition from immature to soft collagen results in a softer appearance. I hope this explanation helps. Best regards.

If Bellafill is injected too superficially, it may be visible when smiling. It is recommended to wait at least 6 months to assess the final result, as initial swelling can distort the outcome. If issues persist beyond this time, treatments like 5FU or collagenase can help reduce collagen buildup around Bellafill.
