An Introduction

Bellafill is unique among dermal fillers: it combines a collagen gel for immediate volume with tiny microspheres that stimulate your own collagen to form a lasting support structure. The result is correction that endures for years rather than months — FDA-approved for smile lines and for moderate-to-severe acne scars. At Natural Results, Bellafill is administered under board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Carlos Mata (Dr. Scottsdale®) for patients seeking a long-term solution.

01
The Treatment

What is Bellafill?

Bellafill works in two ways: a smooth collagen gel adds immediate volume, while suspended PMMA microspheres remain in place and prompt your body to build its own collagen around them — creating durable support. It's FDA-approved for nasolabial smile lines and for pitted acne scars on the cheek.

Because it's not reversible like hyaluronic-acid fillers, a skin test and conservative approach are part of the process. For temporary, adjustable options see the Juvederm family.

02
What to Expect

Results & Longevity

You'll see immediate volume from the collagen gel, with the lasting result building as your own collagen forms over the following weeks. Studies show correction lasting up to five years — by far the longest of any filler.

Frequently Asked

Common Questions

01How long does Bellafill last?+

Clinical studies show correction lasting up to five years — by far the longest of any dermal filler — because it scaffolds your own collagen.

02Is it reversible?+

No — unlike hyaluronic-acid fillers, Bellafill isn't dissolvable, which is why a skin test and a conservative, expert approach matter.

03Can it treat acne scars?+

Yes — it's FDA-approved for moderate-to-severe pitted acne scars on the cheek, in addition to smile lines.

04Do I need a skin test first?+

Yes — because it contains collagen, a skin test is performed beforehand to confirm you're not allergic.
