Who Is a Candidate for BELOTERO BALANCE®?

The team at Jefferson Plastic Surgery is proud to offer the people of Philadelphia, PA some of the latest procedures in facial rejuvenation and wrinkle reduction. While many people have benefited from facial plastic surgery in the past, advances made with injectables have allowed plastic surgeons to achieve the results of surgery without making any incisions. 

BELOTERO BALANCE® is one such cosmetic injection option that has changed patients' lives for the better. Let's consider the basics of this cosmetic injectable and then go over who is an ideal candidate.

About BELOTERO BALANCE®

BELOTERO BALANCE® is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that is used to reduce the prominence of lines and wrinkles on the face. Thanks to the properties of BELOTERO BALANCE®, patients will be able to experience a younger, smoother face with fewer lines and wrinkles. 

BELOTERO BALANCE® is one of many excellent alternatives to facial plastic surgery. Like other dermal filler injections, BELOTERO BALANCE® requires no downtime and allows patients to experience the benefits of facial rejuvenation surgery without any of the risks.

Lines and Wrinkles BELOTERO BALANCE® Can Treat

BELOTERO BALANCE® injections are ideal for treating the following lines and wrinkles:

  • Nasolabial folds
  • Smile lines
  • Lines at the corners of the mouth
  • Vertical lip lines
  • Chin wrinkles
  • Marionette lines

General Candidates for BELOTERO BALANCE®

Good candidates for BELOTERO BALANCE® include people who suffer from deep lines and wrinkles on the face. They should be in good overall health and not suffer from any medical conditions that would make a cosmetic injection treatment risky for general wellness.

Testing for Potential Allergic Reactions

While hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in the human body, patients may react to different injectables in different ways. As part of the consultation process, we screen for potential allergic reactions to various dermal fillers. If a patient exhibits a potential for an allergic reaction to BELOTERO BALANCE®, a different injectable will be used instead. This is just a common sense safety approach to this kind of procedure.

Realistic Expectations about BELOTERO BALANCE®

While BELOTERO BALANCE® injections can have a dramatic impact on your appearance, it's important for patients to have realistic expectations about cosmetic injectables and what they can achieve. BELOTERO BALANCE® results are only temporary, lasting around six months. Additional injection sessions will be required to prolong the results beyond six months.

BELOTERO BALANCE® vs. Plastic Surgery

While BELOTERO BALANCE® injections are helpful to many people who visit our practice, some patients may be better suited for facial plastic surgery procedures. For instance, BELOTERO BALANCE® injections could help with smile lines and pouting lines, but it may not be as helpful with sagging jowls and issues with the neckline. In these cases, a lower face lift or a neck lift may be more ideal.
