Bellafill
Suneva Medical, Inc, recognized the treatment of acne scars was an unmet need, which led to research supporting a new indication for the dermal filler Bellafill for the treatment of moderate to severe, atrophic, distensible facial acne scars on the cheek in patients older than 21 years. Bellafill is a smooth, collagen-based dermal filler with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres. The collagen gel provides immediate volume and lift to correct the scar, and the PMMA microspheres remain in place and provide structural support for smoother-looking skin. Bellafill is not indicated for ice-pick scars. Although Bellafill can be used in all skin types, the patient’s acne cannot be active. Results have been observed to last 12 months. Patients may continue with ongoing topical treatments but should discontinue any topical treatment the night after injection. For more information, visit www.bellafill.com.
