An Update on Prevea’s Western Wisconsin Operation

Bellafill® is an FDA approved injectable filler that treats certain types of acne scars. Bellafill provides instant smoothness that you notice as soon as you leave the office -- and it's been clinically proven to last 12 months.

Two important components work with your skin for soft smoothness that looks and feels very natural:

  • Collagen gel (80%) forms the smooth base of Bellafill, adding instant volume to depressed scars and raising them to a level that's even with the surrounding skin.
  • Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres (20%) remain after the body absorbs the collagen gel, supporting the growth of your own natural collagen.

The Patient Experience

Bellafill for acne is an outpatient procedure. Treatment begins by cleansing your skin and preparing it for treatment. Then, a series of carefully placed injections are given. The treatment is relatively brief, and there is no downtime. You may return to your normal activities as soon as you leave the office. Although significant side effects are uncommon, you may experience localized sensations, such as itching, bruising, swelling, redness, discoloration, bumps or increased sensitivity. These effects are typically temporary and will go away on their own.
