Bellafill is a long lasting injectable filler used for the correction of rolling, atrophic, and distensible facial acne scars. Bellafill is the only dermal filler established as safe and effective for the correction of acne scars lasting 5 years, the longest lasting results of any FDA-approved injectable.

Dr. Chiu offers a new level of filler correction to those with acne scars with Bellafill, which is made of bovine collagen and polymethylmethacrylate (pMMA) microspheres. The collagen portion of the product immediately adds volume to lift depressed acne scars, while the PMMA microspheres over weeks help your skin re-create its own firmer longer lasting structure. During the injection of Bellafill, Dr. Chiu will also use a subcision technique to break up any fibrous bands pulling down the acne scars. Treatment of acne scars with Bellafill is often optimized with other modalities including lasers, microneedling, TCA CROSS technique, and radiofrequency.

Bellafill is the only dermal filler established as safe and effective for the correction of acne scars lasting 5 years.

Treatment with Bellafill requires a skin test 30 days prior to the first session. If no reaction is detected with the skin test, 2 sessions are typically required for complete correction of rolling acne scars lasting over 5 years. Immediate improvement is seen after the first session, and a second “booster” session is to ensure long last and optimal correction of scars.
