How Belotero Balance works to rejuvenate the lower third of the face

So much attention has been paid to the upper third of the face with all the mask-wearing over the last year. But the lower third of the face shows the signs of aging and can make you look older than you are. Between the loss of collagen and elastin as you age, and repetitive expressions such as smiling and laughing, all contribute to lines and wrinkles around the lips and mouth. A cosmetic filler called Belotero Balance will help smooth out lines and wrinkles and help you appear more youthful.

What is Belotero Balance?

Belotero Balance is an injectable gel that is used to temporarily smooth out and fill moderate-to-severe nasolabial folds and other moderate-to-severe lines and wrinkles around the lips and mouth. It’s made of a substance called hyaluronic acid, which is naturally occurring in the skin. It’s formulated into a uniquely smooth and cohesive injectable gel that blends into the natural structure of the skin to fill in those unwanted lines and wrinkles.

Is treatment painful?

There may be some slight pinches as with all injectable treatments, but your doctor can help you with any discomfort you may feel. There is no downtime, so patients can return to their normal activities right after their treatment.

How is Belotero Balance different from other fillers?

It is a hyaluronic acid filler that is designed to integrate into facial skin tissue. Once injected, the soft, cohesive gel fills the skin to smooth out lines and wrinkles. It’s designed for moderate-to-severe lines, but also can treat delicate areas such as etched-in smile lines and vertical lip lines, which are thin lines above and around the lips.

When will I see results?

Like many fillers, you will see results upon treatment. While individual results will vary, it should last about six or more months. Repetitive movement such as eating, talking and smiling may affect how long results last.

Cosmetic injectables can temporarily smooth out lines and wrinkles and help you look more youthful. If you’re interested in learning more, schedule an appointment by calling Maehara Eye Surgery & Laser at 808.955.3937.
