Is Bellafill an option for hollowness in lower check area?
A patient Staff asked 9 years ago I want to have something done to fix the sunken, hallow look I have on my mid to lower cheek area as well as improve the dark bags I have under my eyes. I have looked at voluma, bellafill, and sculptra. They all seem to be options but honestly sculptra scares me a bit and before and after I see of voluma don’t seem to show any real improvement. Any suggestions or guidance?
Dr. Elham Jafari Staff answered 9 years ago Bellafill for Restoration of Volume in Lower Cheeks
Hi and thank you for sharing your question here! Bellafill is a very good choice for restoration of volume in the cheeks and lower cheek area. On top of adding immediate volume upon injection, it is a stimulating filler and continues to work in the months that follow. For most patients and to get the best results, I usually do a second touch-up session after 6 weeks. Although Bellafill is an amazing filler, unfortunately it cannot be injected under the eyes and may cause lumps in the future. Please make sure to find a highly-experienced physician and good luck!
